Marshall Faulk, Ike Taylor and Heath Evans, all former NFL players, won’t appear on the NFL-owned channel while the network investigates the allegations of verbal and physical harassment, a spokesman for the network said.
Former NFL Network wardrobe stylist Jami Cantor said in the suit that she was subject to repeated harassment by Messrs. Faulk, Taylor and Evans as well as from former NFL Network executive Eric Weinberger and other former players who had worked at the network as on-air talent.
Ms. Cantor’s suit—which was initially filed in October in California Superior Court in Los Angeles County and claimed wrongful termination—was amended Monday to include the harassment allegations. Ms. Cantor said the NFL Network fired her in October 2016 claiming she had stolen clothes. She denied the accusation.
