    After previously declining to discuss accusations that he was "the leader" of a Sept. 11 assault on a 34-year-old Tampa man, Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back LeGarrette Blount on Wednesday denied any wrongdoing in the alleged incident to the Tampa Tribune. According to a police report obtained by NFL.com and NFL Network on Tuesday, Gary Holmer claimed Blount directed two men to severely beat him after a car accident. "In my mind I didn't do anything wrong at all," Blount told the newspaper Wednesday. "I didn't orchestrate anything. I didn't make any suggestions for anything.'' Police didn't pursue charges of burglary for the purpose of committing battery, felony battery and felony criminal mischief in the incident at the alleged victim's request. When later contacted by police regarding the alleged assault, Blount declined to give a statement. Blount, the Buccaneers' leading rusher, said he has moved on. "It happened all the way back in September, so, I mean, it's just coming out now, but I've been focusing on football since (it happened)," he told the paper. "It was months ago. There's nothing that I can do about it now."
