No formal complaint has been filed regarding an incident involving Pittsburgh Steelers backup quarterback Skylar Thompson in Dublin, according to An Garda Síochána. The Irish police confirmed that no reports of a robbery have been substantiated at this time, though preliminary investigations suggest a situation involving an assault near Temple Bar. Meanwhile, Irish media reported that a number of males were involved in an assault on Thompson, and his phone was stolen. Police stated they became involved early Saturday when officers encountered a male requiring medical assistance. Thompson, who was on injured reserve, was not eligible to play Sunday in Ireland's first regular-season NFL game. The Steelers beat the Minnesota Vikings 24-21 at Croke Park, while their spokesperson highlighted ongoing concerns over safety and well-being. The NFL declined to comment, and the NFL Players Association expressed support for Thompson amid continued focus on player protections.
