Denver Broncos safety Quinton Carter is facing felony charges after the Texas Station Casino in Las Vegas accused him of adding a $5 chip to three bets after the dice already rolled. Video surveillance apparently captured the event.
A spokesperson for the team told the Associated Press the Broncos are investigating the matter.
The 24-year-old Carter proclaimed his innocence on Wednesday.
"Regarding the matter that allegedly occurred during a brief trip to my hometown of Las Vegas, I am fully confident that when the facts come out I will be cleared," Carter said.
The act carries a possible prison sentence of between one and six years.
Carter's initially signed with the Broncos for four years and was slated to make approximately $2.5 million over that period of time.
Denver is a favourite to win the 2014 Super Bowl.
