Here are the disturbing details.<\/p>\n

Former Fox Sports Host And Dallas Cowboys Star Facing Disturbing Accusations<\/h2>\n

Marcellus Wiley, a former NFL defensive end and Fox Sports and ESPN on-air personality, is facing four sexual assault charges, according to Drew Lerner of Awful Announcing.<\/p>\n

Last month, court documents were filed alleging the abuse.\u00a0This\u00a0report states that the four new claimants are in addition to three existing claims of sexual assault against Wiley.\u00a0In court papers, his lawyer denied the prior allegations, which he had previously termed BS:<\/p>\n

As explained by Lerner, one of the new claims was made by an ESPN production assistant who claims that Wiley assaulted her in his hotel room. Another claim, per the report, was made by a woman who contends that Wiley raped her on her 18th birthday, after allegedly \u201cgrooming\u201d her since she was 13.<\/p>\n

Wiley left Fox Sports in 2022. He has produced podcast content independently since then.<\/p>\n

A second-round pick out of Columbia in 1997, Wiley spent four years with the Bills, three with the Chargers, one with the Cowboys, and two with the Jaguars. He was a Pro Bowler and a second-team All-Pro in 2001.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In conjunction with these previous allegations, these four new allegations allege that\u00a0the rapes by Wiley were<\/span>\u00a0hid. This<\/span>\u00a0created the impression that he was a safe, respectable, and trustworthy individual, placing women in danger who later encountered him.<\/p>\n

There is a wide range of allegations in the latest allegations.<\/p>\n

There are two accusers alleging that Wiley sexually assaulted them between 1995 and 1999 in California. Another accuses that Wiley began grooming her when she was 13 years old before having a sexual encounter while he was in the NFL. The former ESPN production assistant alleges that Wiley tricked her into going to his room under the pretense of a work meeting before sexually assaulting her.<\/p>\n

In 1997, Wiley was drafted by the Bills in the second round. He spent four years with the Bills, three years with the Chargers, one year with the Cowboys, and two years with the Jaguars.\u00a0In 2001, he was selected to the Pro Bowl and was a second team All-Pro team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
