Following his arrest, the “Chasin’ You” singer spoke out about the incident.

"I didn't feel right publicly checking in until I made amends with some folks," he wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, April 19. "I've touched base with Nashville law enforcement, my family, and the good people at Chief's. I'm not proud of my behavior, and I accept responsibility."

Morgan added, "I have the utmost respect for the officers working every day to keep us all safe."
