WESTFIELD — Rookie Colts linebacker Bobby Okereke on Saturday denied wrongdoing in the Title IX case of sexual assault that was filed against him in 2015 when he was at Stanford, citing the twice-issued ruling of the university’s in-house disciplinary board in the case.

Okereke, speaking on the matter for the first time since news of the allegation broke in June, maintains his innocence.

The third-round pick also cited his decision to reveal the nature of the incident to the Colts at the Senior Bowl.
