BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Buffalo Bills first-round draft pick Maxwell Hairston faces a lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault in 2021.
The lawsuit was filed Tuesday in Kentucky and alleges Hairston entered a woman’s dorm room uninvited and assaulted her while he was on the Kentucky football team.
The Bills declined to comment but referred to earlier remarks by general manager Brandon Beane, who said the team had investigated the allegations and found no substance to them.
Hairston was drafted 30th overall in April.
He is competing for a starting cornerback position. The Bills resume training camp later this month.
