Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper dismissed rumors Wednesday that he had been shot near the team’s practice facility.

A rumor spread quickly on social media that Cooper had been shot and his condition was unknown. About an hour later, Dallas police put the speculation to rest, calling the report false.

Cooper himself then went on Instagram and made sure to let his fans know he was fine.
