Attorney of accuser in Matt Araiza rape case: Bills didn't contact me during 'thorough examination'

The Buffalo Bills have reportedly known about the serious sexual assault allegations against rookie punter Matt Araiza since July. In a statement on Thursday, after the disturbing details of the alleged gang-rape of a then 17-year-old high school student came out, the Bills said the following:

"We were recently made aware of a civil complaint involving Matt from October 2021. Due to the serious nature of the complaint, we conducted a thorough examination of this matter. As this is an ongoing civil case legal, we will have no other comment at this point."

According to the attorney of the accuser, the team failed to make an attempt at communicating with him or his client throughout the entire "thorough examination."
