The Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Riley Cooper was seen practicing with his team again on Aug. 6 after being away for a few days. And the Eagles welcome him back.

In a video that went viral over the past weeks, Cooper was caught using a racial slur -- the "n-word"-- while at a concert with friends. After the video surfaced, Cooper was asked to take a few days away from practice to receive counseling and was also fined for his actions.

Reports say Cooper has spoken to his teammates about the incident since he was away. And now that he is back he feels the full support of everyone.

"I talked to everyone individually, I told them, 'I don't want you to forgive me, because that puts the burden on you. I want it all on me.' I told them that and I told them I apologize. They could tell it was from the heart, they know I'm not that kind of person," Cooper said in a statement, reports Hollywood Life. "It feels good to have support from the guys," he added.

During the height of the video scandal, the 25-year-old Eagles player issued a public statement apologizing for his actions. Part of his statement read: "This is the lowest of lows. This is not the type of person I want to be portrayed as. This isn't the type of person I am. I'm extremely sorry."

Cooper is on his way to his fourth season playing in the NFL. He has a record of five touchdowns and 46 catches, so far.

"It felt good to be out there with the guys and catching and running and making some plays and them coming up to you, supporting you, high-fiving you, chest-bumping you like Jason Avant did in the end zone when I had that TD. It just felt good to be back out here with the guys," Cooper said.
