NFL long snapper Jake McQuaide was kicked out of a Catholic church in Ohio over the weekend, with police escorting him out after a tense exchange.

The 14-year veteran is a free agent after spending the 2024 NFL season with the Miami Dolphins and was among parishioners looking for answers following allegations of a priest viewing pornography on a church computer.

According to WCPO, Todd Zureick, a member of Our Lady of the Visitation in Green Township, said he saw photos from a laptop containing “thumbnails to pornography sites and links to multiple virtual reality role-playing sites involving pornography, sexual assault, group sex, rape, and occult themes.”

Zureick filed a complaint with the archdiocese earlier this year, and his claims were being addressed on Saturday, with Jason Williams, the archdiocese of Cincinnati Chancellor, reading a letter from Archbishop Robert Casey claiming Martin Bachman, the priest in question, did nothing wrong.

“These have been investigated, and no wrongdoing — either criminally or ecclesiastically — has been substantiated … consequently, like gossip, the spreading of rumors is sinful, and we should all work to overcome this tendency of our fallen human nature,” the letter read.

Jake McQuaide Wanted A Straight Answer

Jake McQuaide, a two-time NFL Pro Bowler, demanded answers after the letter was read.

“Please take a second. We want to put these rumors to rest. Can you answer this for me … fact or fiction?” he asked.

Someone at the altar tried to tell him it was the wrong time for such questioning, to which he replied, “I’m sorry, sir, this is the time and the place. I will stand up. … Did the priest use our parish computer to look at pornography? … true or false. … I am not trespassing.

“You can look at pornography at your house, but you cannot do it here,” he added.

Greenship Town police then escorted him out.

Captain Mitch Hill later said that McQuiade was not detained nor charged with a crime.

Meanwhile, archbishop Casey said Bachman plans to take a break in July, but it has nothing to do with the allegations.
