Incognito has lashed out at Martin on Twitter, saying "The truth is going to bury you and your entire \'camp.\' You could have told the truth the entire time." Incognito also wrote Martin told him he thought about committing suicide last May because he wasn\'t playing well. Incognito\'s series of tweets Wednesday, Feb. 12, 2014, directed at Martin and his representatives come as the NFL is preparing to release a report on the Dolphins\' bullying case which could shed light on their relationship.

Dolphins offensive lineman Richie Incognito offered apologies to teammate Jonathan Martin, team owner Stephen Ross and investigator Ted Wells in the wake of the NFL-ordered report detailing a racially charged bullying scandal.

The report stated there was a “pattern of harassment” committed by Incognito and teammates John Jerry and Mike Pouncey that extended to two Dolphins linemen and an assistant trainer, all targets of vicious taunts and racist insults.

On his Twitter account Tuesday, Incognito wrote, “I would like to send Jonathan my apologies as well. Until someone tells me different you are still my brother. No hard feelings :)”

That came after the soon-to-be free agent apologized Monday night for “acting like a big baby.”

Incognito also wrote that he’s in “good spirits” and wants to play football again.
