The San Francisco 49ers made a huge mistake by keeping Ahmad Brooks on the roster throughout this offseason, despite his alleged involvement in a sexual assault case with former teammate Ray McDonald.
Both men have been indicted in the same incident. McDonald has been charged with rape, while Brooks is being charged with misdemeanor sexual battery on the same woman, who was intoxicated at the time, ESPN reports.
The team sent Brooks back to San Francisco upon learning the news of this indictment. He was with the 49ers in Denver as the team engages in joint practices with the Broncos before the two franchises face one another in the third preseason game.
