The Loudoun County Sheriff's Office said a November traffic stop involving Washington Redskins defensive back Su'a Cravens was "not a case of racial profiling" after the NFL player threatened to file a lawsuit.
On Monday, TMZ Sports passed along comments from Cravens, who said he was stopped because "I'm black. I've got tattoos on my neck. I'm out here in a nice car." The Virginia-based Sheriff's Office released a statement to TMZ Sports denying that was the case.
"A deputy's LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) received a reading on a vehicle that was traveling over the posted speed limit of 25 mph in a school zone," the LCSO said.
