NFL draft prospect Isaiah Bond has surrendered to police over a sexual assault warrant. He strongly denies the claims, calling them “patently false,” and says he’s fully cooperating with the investigation.
Just weeks before the 2025 NFL Draft, former Texas Longhorns wide receiver Isaiah Bond has found himself at the center of a serious legal examination. The 21-year-old, projected as a likely second-day pick, surrendered to Frisco police on Thursday morning on a sexual assault warrant, as reported by The Dallas Morning News. Bond was later released from Collin County Jail after posting $25,000 bail.
Details about the allegations remain under wraps for now, but the arrest has quickly caught the attention of both NFL scouts and fans, casting uncertainty over what had been a promising draft outlook.
Bond responded to the situation with a firm public denial, claiming it was “patently false.” In a statement shared on X (formerly Twitter), he said, “Regarding the accusation made against me, I would appreciate the time and opportunity to defend myself and prove the claims made, patently false.” “I am in full cooperation with the authorities and will remain a willing and active participant in the investigation.
With 34 passes for 540 yards and five touchdowns in 2024, Bond had a successful season with the Texas Longhorns. His amazing speed and ability to make plays downfield made him a key, excellent weapon. Before joining Texas, he spent two seasons at Alabama, where he also showed flashes of NFL-level talent.
Despite the ongoing investigation, Bond remains on draft boards as a valuable receiver prospect. However, teams may now approach his evaluation with added caution as they wait for more clarity around the case.
With the draft fast approaching, both the football world and legal observers are closely watching for developments. For now, Bond maintains his innocence and has pledged full cooperation with law enforcement.
