Philadelphia police are investigating Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor for allegedly raping a dancer at a South Philadelphia strip club.
A 27-year-old dancer at Cheerleaders Gentlemen's Club on South Front Street told police she was raped by a member of the Eagles inside the club around 3 p.m. on Thursday, police said. The Special Victims Unit is actively investigating the alleged sexual assault.
The Eagles released a statement acknowledging the investigation.
"We are aware of the police investigation involving Nelson Agholor. The organization has been in contact with Nelson and with the proper authorities in Philadelphia. Because of the legal nature of this matter, we will have no further comment."
Attorney Fortunato Perri Jr., who is representing Agholor, says "Nelson has not been involved in any criminal conduct whatsoever." He would not discuss the allegations against him.
