Washington Redskins safety Montae Nicholson is being cooperative with investigators who are looking into an overdose case that led to the death of a 21-year-old woman this week, according to TMZ Sports.
The report, which was released Thursday, states that Nicholson was one of two men who brought the unconscious woman to a Virginia emergency room early Thursday morning. The woman was later pronounced deceased. According to TMZ:
Multiple sources connected to the situation tell us one of the men is Montae Nicholson.
Nicholson has NOT been arrested or charged with a crime. However, cops say the case is being actively investigated by the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office and it’s likely they’ll speak with Nicholson as part of the probe.
Nicholson did not participate in Thursday’s practice with the Redskins, but he was in attendance on Friday. Washington coach Bill Callahan spoke about the situation after the fact.
It is unclear whether or not Nicholson will play against the New York Jets on Sunday.
