BREAKING: The Buffalo Bills have cut rookie punter Matt Araiza, two days after a lawsuit was filed alleging the player and two college teammates gang-raped a teenager last fall.
The Bills opted then to keep Araiza even while being aware of the allegations made against him since late July. The team then stood by the player by announcing it “conducted a thorough examination” into the matter a day after the lawsuit was filed.
McDermott then interjected by saying the team did consider the victim’s version of events as contained in the lawsuit. Without another punter on the roster, third-string quarterback Matt Barkley handled the punting duties. It’s unclear whether Araiza informed the NFL about the allegations in the months leading up to the draft.Executives from two different teams told The Associated Press they became aware of Araiza’s involvement in an incident during the draft process, but neither person knew the extent of the allegations. Executives from three other teams said they had no knowledge of the allegations against Araiza before the draft and only learned of the incident Thursday.
