Manti Te’o said he briefly lied about his online girlfriend after he found out she was real.
In a leaked portion of his exclusive interview with Katie Couric, Te’o said that anyone would have done the same thing, considering the girl he believed to be real called him after she supposedly died.
The full interview is scheduled to air Thursday.
