St. Louis Rams tight end Jared Cook has apologized for shoving teammate Austin Davis during Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

After Cook dropped a touchdown pass, Davis tried to give Austin Davis a high-five, but the tight end wasn't receptive to it, shoving the Rams' quarterback.

Following the game, Cook took to Twitter to reflect upon his outburst. 

"My actions from today's game were truly a mistake - unintentional and in the heat of the moment," Cook wrote.

"There is never an excuse for unsportsmanlike conduct and I apologize to everyone. I want to thank my teammates again, Austin Davis and William Hayes for their support on the sideline - the Rams organization and especially to all our fans for whom we fight so hard for your love and continued support."

After taking a 21-0 lead, the Rams ultimately lost to the Cowboys 34-31.
