Former Pitt star LeSean McCoy denies accusations that surfaced on social media

LeSean McCoy, a running back for the Buffalo Bills and a former standout at Pitt, strongly denied allegations that spread on social media Tuesday that he had violently assaulted a woman.

“For the record, the totally baseless and offensive claims made against me are completely false,” McCoy said on his own social-media accounts. “Further more, I have not had any direct contact with any of the people involved in months.”

McCoy’s statement was made a few hours after a photograph and a message were posted on Instagram showing what appeared to be a girlfriend of his, Delicia Cordon, with a bloodied face.
