NFL Network Exec, On-Air Personalities Accused of Groping in New Lawsuit

Marshall Faulk, Ike Taylor, and Heath Evans have been suspended.

The NFL Network has suspended three of its on-air personalities after a former female employee alleged she was groped and sexually harassed at the network. In a complaint filed Monday in Los Angeles, Jami Cantor, a former wardrobe stylist, describes rampant sexual harassment that went all the way to the top. Cantor claims Eric Weinberger, the former executive producer of the NFL Network, sent her “several nude pictures of himself and sexually explicit texts.” The complaint also claims Weinberger placed his crotch against Cantor’s shoulder and urged her to touch it, Bloomberg News reported. Cantor also alleges player-turned-analyst Marshall Faulk fondled her breasts and groped her behind. Three other current and former network analysts—Ike Taylor, Heath Evans, and Donovan McNabb—are also named in Cantor’s complaint. An NFL spokesman said Faulk, Taylor, and Evans have been suspended pending an investigation. Cantor said her earlier complaints to the network were brushed off and she was told the alleged harassment is “part of the job when you look the way you do.”
