Jets Safety Rhodes Investigated For Possible Rape

A report from the New York Post states that safety Kerry Rhodes, one of the team leaders of the New York Jets, could be in big time trouble. A Canadian woman claims Rhodes and another man raped her in Morristown, New Jersey late Friday.

Rhodes said through the New York Jets: "The police confirmed to me that I am not the subject of this allegation."

The story reports that the woman went out with a friend to a club in Manhattan where she met Rhodes and the other gentleman. The Post reported that she didn't know who Rhodes was until her friend informed her. After their meeting at the club, the woman joined Rhodes and his guest back in Morristown where they supposedly raped her. READ STORY. The investigation is still ongoing.

If there is any truth to the matter then Rhodes is in big trouble with the law, which is the last thing that he and the Jets need at this time. Rhodes is an important asset to the Jets since he is one of the longest tenured players on the team, and a fantastic football player in general.

Than again, this could be also be a case of mistaken identity, or even a fabrication on the woman's part, but nothing will be certain until Morristown police complete their work.
