Wide receiver Isaiah Bond, a prospect in this month’s NFL draft, turned himself in to police in Frisco, Texas, on a sexual assault warrant on Thursday.
Bond posted bail and was released. He posted a statement to Instagram to deny that he committed the act.
“Regarding the accusation made against me, I would appreciate the time and opportunity to defend myself and prove the claims made, patently false,” Bond wrote. “I am in full cooperation with the authorities and will remain a willing and active participant in the investigation. Unfortunately, claims like these prove to be harmful to all involved, absent full review. I kindly request that all reserve judgement until the authorities provide a complete report based on truth and evidence. Humbly, Isaiah Bond.”
Details of the accusation against Bond were not yet known.
Bond transferred to Texas in 2024 after spending two seasons at Alabama. He had 34 receptions for 540 yards and five touchdowns and added four carries for 98 yards and a rushing touchdown in 14 games this past season.
Bond tallied 99 receptions for 1,428 yards and 10 touchdowns in his three-year college career. Several outlets project him as a second- or third-round draft pick.
