Colts star Darius Leonard says he was racially profiled, kicked out of a Chipotle

Indianapolis Colts star linebacker Darius Leonard says he was kicked out a Florence, South Carolina, Chipotle on Thursday because he is Black.

The 24-year-old said in an Instragram post that he was eating with "three other Black guys and a mixed woman" away from most of the rest of the restaurant's patrons when a white customer complained to management that Leonard and his family were "verbally abusing him" and "talking trash to him."

Leonard said that was a lie.

He added that the manager approached his table with a "terrible attitude and was "very disrespectful" and eventually kicked them out after threatening to call the police.
