This arrest of Wiley, 51, comes after a recent Rolling Stone article, which cited accusations of sexual assault by four women in April 2026.

Wiley was also previously sued by three women for allegedly raping them while at Columbia, where he played his college football. He denied those allegations on his “More To It with Marcellus Wiley” podcast, claiming to have evidence to prove what he called “alleged misrepresentations.”
Wiley had also called the allegations while at Columbia “B.S.”
Wiley’s wife is Annemarie Wiley, who used to star on “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”
The Rolling Stone article notes two of the women who claim Wiley sexually assaulted them came between 1995-1999.
There was another woman who claimed that Wiley groomed her since she was 13 years old during his time playing for the Buffalo Bills. Then, she claims that Wiley raped her when she was 18 in Dallas. She claims to have been flown out by Wiley as he was playing for the Cowboys, per Rolling Stone.
“Marcellus Wiley raped me on my 18th birthday, after grooming me from the age of 13,” the victim wrote, adding that he referred to her as ‘little momma.’ “If Columbia had properly pursued the complaints… I would never have been groomed and raped.”
Also, a woman who used to be a production assistant at ESPN – Wiley has worked as a broadcaster for ESPN and FOX Sports – alleged Wiley deceived her about joining him in a hotel room for a working meeting in 2009. But she claims h sexually assaulted her during that time.
“The assault was devastating to me, and I will live with the effects to this day,” the fourth woman wrote in a court filing, per Rolling Stone.
