Broncos Player Quinton Carter Faces Felony in Alleged Casino Cheating

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.
