The team released a statement Friday night shortly after the news broke on social media.
We are aware of the disturbing allegations involving Drew Ogletree. The team takes these matters seriously. We have notified the NFL and are in the process of gathering more information. We will have no further comment at this time.
Ogletree, 25, was selected by the Colts in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL draft. He missed his rookie season due to a torn ACL he suffered during training camp. In 12 games (nine starts) this season, Ogletree has nine receptions for 147 yards and two touchdowns.
We will update this situation when more information is provided.
