Saints WR apologizes for impersonating Marques Colston, signing autographs
Ever pretend to be someone you’re not? Ever get confused for a famous person?
Well, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandon Coleman took that to a new level: He signed autographs while wearing a Colston jersey and Colston’s helmet.
This occured Sunday after Saints practice in White Sulphur Springs, W. Va. Apparently a few duped fans were a little miffed once they caught on.

Coleman posted an apology on Twitter. But check it out: Was he signing his name?
The “lol” part, though, might as well have undercut the previous 50 words he wrote. Funny how that works.
Perhaps Coleman — who has been having an outstanding training camp, per media reports — was taking the media comparisons of the two receivers a bit too literally.
