- Perry released an apology, admitting his “behaviour was inappropriate and wrong,” adding he would work with experts to “discuss his struggles with alcohol.”

Peery claimed alcohol was the cause of his actions. That was his excuse.
This was not a substantiated claim, as he didn't go into the leagues program. This was just a weak excuse.
