Former NFL tight end Vernon Davis is breaking his silence after he was accused of attacking a woman. "I'm aware and saddened by the reporting and look forward to clearing my name," Davis said in a written statement shared via Instagram on Saturday, January 31. "For now, I'm staying focused on my life, my work, and the amazing people and partners who believe in and continue to support me. Your positivity means everything." He captioned the post, "With love, Verny Vern." Davis, 41, posted the same message on his Instagram story, deciding to turn the comments off on both posts.
