Broncos' Gotsis arrested after woman says he raped her in 2013

Adam Gotsis has been arrested after a woman said the Denver Broncos defensive tackle raped her in 2013 when he played for Georgia Tech, reports Kirk Mitchell of The Denver Post.

Gotsis surrendered on March 7 at Atlanta's Fulton County Jail, according to an Atlanta police incident report.

The 30-year-old woman says she was raped in Atlanta on March 9, 2013. The woman reported the incident on Feb. 1, according to the police report.

"Our organization was aware of his arrest on March 7, and it is our understanding that no determination has been made at this time as to whether any charges will be filed," the Broncos said in a statement to The Denver Post. "The Broncos take an accusation of this nature very seriously and will continue to closely monitor the legal proceedings."

Gotsis' attorney, Sara Becker, released a statement in response to the arrest:

"Although the incident in question allegedly occurred more than five years ago, Adam first learned of these shocking accusations last month. We immediately reached out to law enforcement and have proactively cooperated with all aspects of the investigation while maintaining communication with the team. While we were disappointed to learn of the turn the investigation was taking, we steadfastly maintain that the allegations are false. We will continue to advocate strongly for Adam’s innocence."

Denver drafted Gotsis in the second round in 2016. He started 13 of 16 games in 2017.
