    Redskins LB quits Twitter after dig at fans
    Now that he's apologized for calling fans "dim wits," Redskins rookie Robert Henson is apparently done with Twitter.


    ASHBURN, Va. -- Now that he's apologized for calling fans "dim wits," Washington Redskins rookie Robert Henson is apparently done with Twitter.



    Anyone clicking on Henson's Twitter account Tuesday got a message saying "Sorry, that page doesn't exist!"

    On Sunday night, Henson fired off many tweets at fans who booed the Redskins during their 9-7 win over the St. Louis Rams. Henson called the fans "dim wits" and asked how people who "work 9 to 5 at Mcdonalds" could know what's best for the team.

    Henson apologized Monday during a brief session with reporters.

    A Redskins spokesman said Henson took down the Twitter account on his own and was not ordered to do so by the team.

    Henson, a sixth-round draft pick, has been yet to play this season.
