A civil lawsuit against BYU quarterback Jake Retzlaff was dismissed after both parties agreed to do so. Retzlaff plans to transfer from BYU following a potential seven-game suspension for admitting to premarital sex during the legal proceedings. The woman alleged Retzlaff committed rape, but his legal team denied it, asserting the encounter was consensual. They claimed the lawsuit was an extortion attempt due to Retzlaff's rising NFL prospects. BYU's coaching staff is preparing backup quarterbacks, anticipating Retzlaff's absence as he informs teammates of his departure.
Retzlaff and the woman connected through social media, leading to her visiting Retzlaff's apartment, where they began kissing after her friend departed.
The lawsuit described the encounter differently, alleging rape, strangulation, and biting, while Retzlaff's lawyer characterized it as consensual and an extortion attempt.
