Details of the sexual assault allegations - and alleged cover-up attempt - made against Peyton Manning during his time at the University of Tennessee resurfaced Saturday in a column by Shaun King of the New York Daily News.

The article elicited some strong reactions, particularly from former Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe, who lashed out at Manning through a series of profanity-filled tweets.

Kluwe's rant started off by calling Manning "a disgusting scumbag of a human being" and describing an extremely explicit sex act against the Denver Broncos quarterback.

Kluwe also criticized ESPN, the NFL, and Volunteers fans for defending Manning.
