I would be "forced to respect him" but I'd feel better about him as a player and a human being.
Edit: I *did* find where Burfict issues an apology. To the cameraman he injured. After the team asked him to.

Good to know words make all the hurt in your world go away.
It's all besides the fact anyways. I've already said I don't condone his antics one way or another. At this point you're simply arguing with me for the sake of arguing.
I know you're gonna defend you boy right or wrong; Steelers fans have this uncanny knack for ignoring the bullshit their team does (it's why players who made a career out of head hunting are folk heroes to Steelers fans; STEELUHS FUUBAWL!!!). It just upsets me that a player like Amendola immediately gets labeled a dirty player for the hit he laid out on that Chiefs player while Shazier's hit (which was the exact same by the way) gets deemed clean by everyone because of the differences in uniform.

Unhallowed, be thy name
Cursed be thy sons and daughters
Of our nemesis who are to blame
Thy kingdom come, Nema
