Indianapolis Colts linebacker Bobby Okereke defended himself against sexual assault accusations from 2015 on Saturday, calling the allegations “untrue.”
Speaking on the matter for the first time since the allegation broke in June, Okereke denied wrongdoing and maintained his innocence.
"Those were untrue allegations," Okereke said, per the Indianapolis Star's Joel A. Erickson. "I fully complied with the school investigation and was found not responsible. I informed the team about it during the pre-draft process."
Okereke spoke to Ballard at the 2019 combine and revealed he was the subject of a New York Times investigation regarding sexual assault on Stanford's campus in 2015.
