Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy is defending himself against allegations that he abused his 6-year-old son. He is calling the allegations "ridiculous" and says they're being made by people with something to gain.
McCoy spoke after practice Wednesday, a day after being called "a monster" by his son's mother in a court document filed in Georgia.
Stephanie Maisonet also said she agreed to defend McCoy against allegations of abuse made by his ex-girlfriend even though she said she knew the accusations to be true. Maisonet said she made the deal only after McCoy offered to drop a custody case.
McCoy responded by accusing Maisonet of having something to gain. He said he loves his son and is still fighting for custody.
McCoy's playing status is uncertain for Sunday's game against the Vikings. He hurt his ribs in a loss to the Chargers last weekend.
Keenum says he'll play
Case Keenum said he'll be back directing Denver's offense Thursday after missing Wednesday's workout because of a sore knee.
"I woke up Monday a little sore," Keenum said. "I could have practiced today. I wanted to practice today, but they wouldn't let me. So, a good mental day, come back and be ready to go tomorrow."
Although Keenum has thrown four interceptions already after getting picked off just seven times last year in Minnesota, he's led the Broncos to their sixth straight 2-0 start with a pair of fourth-quarter comebacks.
