Denver Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib was too intoxicated to remember the events leading up to Sunday's shooting, according to WFAA-TV's Rebecca Lopez.

“Everything was a blur, and I was too intoxicated to remember what happened," Talib told Dallas Police, as reported by Lopez.

Talib reportedly told police that he was at a park when he was shot at 3:40 a.m. on Sunday. However, police are investigating the possibility that Talib was at a strip club, instead of a park at the time of the shooting.

The Broncos are also reportedly investigating whether Talib accidentally shot himself, according to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio. Talib reportedly told friends he accidentally shot himself, per Mike Klis of 9 News.

Talib was released from hospital Monday, but was unable to join the team on their visit to the White House.
