Elliot's father Stacy Elliot's told TMZ the accusations are false:

"The reported allegations and Internet postings regarding our son are completely false. Ezekiel has done nothing wrong."
"The police have investigated this matter and eyewitnesses have verified the lack of any wrongdoing. The actual evidence in this matter clearly indicates what the real motivation was behind the police being called."
"We are confident that when the truth comes to light it will reveal the falsity of these claims. Ezekiel has been fully cooperative with the police and will continue to do so -- along with cooperating with the NFL -- moving forward
