Last night reports surfaced that cornerback prospect and former Ohio State star Bradley Roby had been arrested for drunk driving. The news was heard around the NFL as many teams have Roby rather high on their draft boards and a red flag like this is the type of thing that sinks a player’s draft stock.
But Roby is firing back at the reports of his arrest by saying it’s all a flat out lie and that he was never arrested or taken in for drunk driving. Roby not only blasted the media for reporting his alleged arrest but also posted proof that he was under the legal limit.
Roby then notes that the lack of a mugshot or the fact he never had his fingerprints taken is more proof of his arrest being fabricated or overblown.
Roby then took a parting shot at media outlets that reported his arrest before all of the facts may have been in.
Things like this are always touchy subject, but it’s clear that keeping his name clean is important to Roby. He raises valid points when it comes to his innocence and this wouldn’t be the first time this sort of tactic was used by NFL teams to hurt a player’s draft stock so that he falls.
