Which is why his statement comes out more concerning.

A neutral response could have just as easily been "My client denies any wrongdoing and has been and will continue to cooperate with all investigations." It gets the same job done for every player on that team, innocent or not.

Bringing up police finding no wrongdoing, knowing they have a closed investigation right now and likely will never get to the point of criminal charges appears to be an extra unneeded part of the statement unless it was pre-emptive.

Could just be a bad agent comment but let's be real, once/if the 8 John Does are named all 8 will say whatever did occur was consensual and that no wrong doing occurred. It would be weird of an agent of a player not involved at all to bring it up (no reason to have his player involved with victim blaming if he wasn't even in the room). So we can and should question why this agent is saying this.
