Patriots' Robert Kraft expects NFL apology if no Deflategate wrongdoing

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft said at a press conference Monday night that the NFL should apologize to the organization if it finds the Patriots didn't commit any wrongdoing in Deflategate, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport.

Kraft was also adamant in defending the Patriots, saying he believes "unconditionally" that the organization hasn't done anything "inappropriate," according to NFL Network's Albert Breer.

From Kraft's presser:
“If the Wells investigation is not able to definitively determine that our organization tampered with the air pressure in the footballs, I would expect and hope that the League would apologize to our entire team and in particular, Coach Belichick and Tom Brady for what they have had to endure this past week. I am disappointed in the way this entire matter has been handled and reported upon. We expect hard facts as opposed to circumstantial leaked evidence to drive the conclusion of this investigation.
