Patriots draft pick Justin Rohrwasser says he will 'cover up' tattoo image tied to far-right organization
'It evolved into something I do not want to represent'
by Gabriel Fernandez 6 hrs ago 1 min read
New England Patriots fifth-round draft pick Justin Rohrwasser told reporters Saturday that he would cover up a tattoo of a symbol associated with a right-wing militia group on his arm. The former Marshall kicker added that it was not meant to represent an association with that group.
The tattoo caught the attention of some on Twitter after Rohrwasser was picked as a potential replacement for long-time specialist Stephen Gostkowski, when a graphic featuring the prospect prominently displayed all the ink on his arm.

(30,745 posts)1. When my children expressed interest in tattoos,
they were asked if they were twenty-one. They were told that it is illegal in Illinois to tattoo anyone who is under twenty-one. That strikes me as a good idea. Most teens do not realize how permanent these things are, and do not understand that they may change their minds about their body art when they are older.

He knows what he is. They know what he is. And we know what he is.
Tattoo removal ain't gonna change that.
