The latest development in the case of an alleged confrontation involving Darrelle Revis in Pittsburgh saw video surface Sunday.

Released by TMZ Sports, the short clip appeared to show the aftermath of the incident where two men were unconscious on the ground while another bragged about knocking them out.

Attorneys for the New York Jets cornerback, who was charged with four felonies and a misdemeanor, insist that the voice on the tape isn't his and that he wasn't involved in the incident.

"Darrelle Revis absolutely, categorically, and positively did not knock out anyone, did not conspire with anyone to commit an assault, did not say 'shut up before I knock your (expletive) out next,' and surely did not 'rob' another of a cell phone," Robert DelGreco Jr. and Mark Fiorilli said in a statement, via Paula Reed Ward of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "The voice and admissions made on the video are not that of Darrelle Revis. We have no doubt but that further investigation relative to the clothing and voice verification will corroborate the above assertions."

Revis' charges include two felony counts of aggravated assault, one felony count of robbery, one felony count of conspiracy (aggravated assault), and one misdemeanor of terroristic threats.

A preliminary court date is set for Thursday.
