A woman who accused suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones of striking her at a strip club withdrew her complaint on Wednesday.
Wanda Jackson, an employee at the club in Atlanta, Georgia, had asked the Fulton County Magistrate Court on Tuesday to consider issuing a warrant against Jones, alleging that he punched her in an incident on Jan. 3.
The Titans declined to comment on the incident, which is just the latest involving Jones, who was suspended for all of last season by National Football League commissioner Roger Goodell for violating the league conduct policy.
"As we have said throughout his suspension, we will not comment on Adam Jones until he is reinstated by the commissioner," the Titans said in a statement.
New England Patriots wide receiver Randy Moss said on Wednesday that a battery allegation against him is false and a bid to get money by the woman who brought the claim.
He said the ongoing legal case barred him from discussing specifics of the incident, which involved his longtime acquaintance Rachelle Washington.
"Over an accident, six figures," Moss said when asked how much she was seeking in damages.
"All I know is that it's a friend of mine, a young lady, it was an accident where she hurt herself, to where they called me, called my attorneys, trying to get X amount of dollars out of me, and if `we don't get X amount of dollars' they were going to go to the press before this game," he said.
