After being arrested early Friday on charges of drunken driving and careless driving, Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Rey Maualuga apologized for his actions on his Twitter account Monday morning.

Maualuga sent three consecutive Tweets expressing his remorse for the incident:

  Sorry for bringing humiliation n embarrassment to this Organization n to dis great city of Cincinnati.

  To Bengals nation n my fans, sorry for letting you guys down n for doing wat I did. I hope dat u guys continue to support me n all I do!

  I kno its gonna be hard to believe me but I will do everything in my power to gain ur trust back! I will definitely learn from this!

Maualuga, who had 63 tackles and one sack in his rookie season before injuring his ankle in Week 16 vs. the Chiefs, faces a pre-trial conference on Feb. 25.

He also faces possible discipline under the NFL's personal conduct policy.
