Vince Young will work out for scouts at the pro day at the University of Texas on March 26, hoping to get another shot to play in the NFL. But as he looks to the future, he's also trying to make amends for his past.

In an interview with the NFL Network on Wednesday, the quarterback said he recently sent a letter to St. Louis Rams coach Jeff Fisher, his former coach with the Tennessee Titans, apologizing for his actions during their time together. He said the death of teammate and mentor Steve McNair greatly affected him during that time period.

"I definitely wanted to apologize for the things that I did, letting him know about the frustration, a lot of different things that was going on in my life at the time, and want him to know that I really did appreciate him trying to make me become one of those type of leaders on the team, a successful quarterback," he said.

He said during his time with the Titans he was "immature and not paying attention and not listening, and taking my frustration out on a lot of people wasn't the right thing to do."

He said he hopes Fisher reads his letter and forgives him.

"I'm hoping him the best in his career and I hope I get the same opportunity to finish my career [in the way] that I want to finish it in," he said.
