The Miami Police Department confirmed Thursday that San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, wide receiver Quinton Patton and Seattle Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette were named as persons involved in an incident report filed April 4, 2014.
"As of right now, we have an investigation," public information officer Kenia Reyes told NFL Media.
Reyes classified the investigation as in "the early stages." No charges have been filed.
Kaepernick addressed the story Friday morning on Twitter.

The Seahawks released the following statement regarding Lockette: "We are aware of the situation, monitoring it closely and will not have any further comment at this time."
