The Indianapolis Colts were aware of, and reviewed, a Title IX case of alleged sexual assault involving 2019 draft pick Bobby Okereke during his time at Stanford, and citing the fact that Okereke was never charged by the university or authorities, as well as his track record since, felt comfortable taking him in the third round of this spring’s draft.

It was Okereke, a linebacker whom the Colts took 89th overall, who initially made the team aware of the alleged incident during an interview at the Senior Bowl in late January.
