It seems Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White isn’t happy with the Minnesota Vikings’ decision to deactivate Adrian Peterson for Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots.

While Peterson has been indicted on charges of child abuse in Texas, White expressed his opinion on Twitter Friday night.

"I'm probably going to lose my fantasy football matchup this week cause all day can't play Sunday for disciplining his child Jesus help us,” White wrote on Twitter.

Minutes later, White deleted the tweet and posted an apology.
