Not Available Lead

Earlier today, we told you about Reagan Maui'a, the former Arizona Cardinals fullback who claims that he actually met Manti Te'o's fake girlfriend Lennay Kekua back in June 2011. He says that he was introduced to her during a trip to American Samoa when he was doing some charity work there alongside Troy Polamalu. Well, evidently, that's led some people out there to ask the Steelers safety whether or not he met Kekua during that trip, too. So, Maui'a took to his Twitter account just a little while ago to ask everyone to keep Polamalu's name out of the conversation:

Troy Polamalu did not meet Lennay or knew of her @ all. He's being unfairly dragged into this & has absolutely no involvement.

For his part, Polamalu also retweeted Maui'a's tweet—which just so happens to be the first tweet he's sent out in two weeks. This story just keeps getting weirder by the hour. We're almost afraid to see what might happen next.
