San Diego Chargers linebacker Shawne Merriman said in a statement Monday that he caused no harm to Tila Tequila in an incident Sunday that resulted in his being taken into custody.

Early Sunday morning, deputies from the San Diego Sheriff’s Department responded to a call at Merriman’s house. The San Diego Union-Tribune reported Tequila, the star of a former reality show on MTV whose real name is Tila Nguyen, signed a citizen’s arrest complaint that charged the linebacker with battery and false imprisonment.

Tequila reportedly told them she was choked, thrown to the ground and restrained by Merriman upon attempting to leave.

But Monday, Merriman released a statement, saying that at the time, “I was concerned about her welfare given the intoxicated state she appeared to be in and I encouraged her to stay until safe transportation could be provided.”

The statement went on to say, “I in no way caused any harm to Ms. Nguyen, however, paramedics were called and she was examined but no injuries were reported.”

The statement said that there have been no official charges filed against him, and that he looks forward to clearing his name.

His statement was the second from the Chargers, as on Sunday, team general manager A.J. Smith said, “It’s disappointing to hear about the issue involving Shawne Merriman. We’ll continue to monitor the situation and let the legal process run its course.”

The 25-year-old Merriman is a three-time Pro Bowl selection and was named First-Team All-Pro in 2006, when he led the league with 17 sacks.

Merriman, the 12th overall pick of the 2005 NFL Draft, has spent his entire four-year career with San Diego. He missed all but the first game last season because of a knee injury that required surgery.
