Marcellus Wiley Denies Sexual Abuse Allegations From Four Women

Former Pro Bowler Marcellus Wiley denied allegations that he sexually abused four women, stating he has evidence to contradict their claims. "For every one of them, I either saw, communicated through email, text, phone, was invited by these individuals after these dates to engage, to be intimate or all the above, after the dates that are in question," Wiley said Tuesday on his self-named show.

"This matters. Why does it matter? Because it directly contradicts the narrative they are trying to present publicly," he added. " Wiley, who spent 10 years in the NFL and later worked as an ESPN and FS1 personality, is being sued by four women over alleged incidents spanning various time periods.

Two of the women allege he raped them in the 1990s in California. A third claims he was grooming her from the age of 13 before they eventually had an intimate relationship years later. A former ESPN production assistant alleges he tricked her into coming to his room under the false pretense of a work meeting in 2009 before he appeared naked and sexually assaulted her.

These allegations come after three prior allegations from women who claimed he raped them during his time at Columbia University, claims he has previously denied.

The 51-year-old posted to X on Wednesday night photos of the dismissal verdict from the first three allegations. "A judge reviewed these claims — and threw them out. No deposition. No trial. No cross-examination. Let that sink in," Wiley wrote. He added that the contradictions in the statements strengthen his defamation case.

Wiley said he learned about the new lawsuits filed in April in New York from a friend who phoned him.

Wiley compared his situation to that of a former NFL receiver who was found not guilty on Tuesday after his personal chef accused him of battery. He said he has similar evidence, including records of continued communication, to counter the allegations against him.

" Wiley said he is speaking out to protect his son, one of four children he shares with his wife. He expressed concern that the allegations could affect his son’s perception of him in the future.

"The toughest part about all of this is the fact there’s going to be a day... I’m not worried about these allegations on the level of — there’s no criminal charges," Wiley said.
