Lawyer claims Bills running back McCoy orchestrated assault

The lawyer for the ex-girlfriend of NFL star LeSean McCoy says the Buffalo Bills running back orchestrated an attack that left her bloody amid attempts to get her to leave his suburban Atlanta mansion.

Attorney Tanya Mitchell Graham says in a statement to news outlets that her client was physically assaulted Tuesday morning by a man who entered the home with no signs of forced entry. The man demanded specific items of jewelry that had been gifted to her from McCoy, who had requested them back on many occasions.

The Associated Press is not identifying the woman, pending further details of the attack.

McCoy and the woman have been in court over his attempts to evict her from the home.

An image of the ex-girlfriend’s bloodied and beaten face was shown in a social media post blaming McCoy for the assault. The football player denied the allegations Tuesday. Redskins’ supplemental selection: The Washington Redskins selected Virginia Tech defensive back Adonis Alexander with a sixth-round pick in the NFL’s supplemental draft Wednesday afternoon. The move will add to the team’s depth in the defensive backfield and costs Washington a sixth-round pick in the 2019 draft, per league rules.

The 6-foot-3, 207-pound Alexander is known for his versatility and could line up at cornerback or safety while bringing size to that position group. He had 27 tackles, one sack, one interception and four pass breakups as a junior in 2017. The Charlotte native picked off seven passes during his three-year career and is a long defender that can get physical with receivers at the line of scrimmage.

There are some off-field issues coming with Alexander, including academic problems while in school and a 2016 marijuana arrest. He was suspended for three games during his collegiate career. He entered the supplemental draft after being ruled academically ineligible for the coming football season.

The Redskins begin training camp in Richmond, Virginia, on July 26. Giants selection: The New York Giants spent a 2019 third-round draft pick on Western Michigan cornerback Sam Beal.

New York will surrender its third-round pick in next April's draft in Nashville.

Beal was ruled academically ineligible for the upcoming college football season and entered the supplemental draft. Pacman fight: Police say former Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones was attacked during a run-in with a facility-service employee at the airport in Atlanta.

Atlanta Police spokesman Jarius Daugherty says Jones confronted ABMIndustries employee Frank Ragin after Ragin made a “gesture” toward the football player Tuesday night at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Police say words were exchanged before Ragin struck Jones with a closed fist, causing a cut to Jones’ face.
