Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Ronald Darby said he was on the Uber ride with Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston on March 13, 2016, and is vowing his college teammate did nothing inappropriate.
Darby released a statement Sunday, two days after the NFL confirmed it was investigating the female Uber driver's allegation that Winston groped her.
"I felt the need to come forward and clarify some inaccurate accounts of the evening of March 13, 2016 when myself, a friend and Jameis Winston took an Uber ride in Arizona," Darby said in his statement.
