NFL is still investigating the players involved in the Al Jazeera case
NFL players involved in the AL Jazeera documentary will still have to proceed with investigations according to Adam Schefter. The players are Packers linebackers Julius Peppers and Clay Matthews, Steelers linebacker James Harrison and free agent (and former Packer) Mike Neal. Peyton Manning is also part of the NFL’s investigation, but because he retired he does not need to submit to anything because they have no jurisdiction over him.
The four players listed above submitted affidavits responding to the allegations made against them in the Al Jazeera documentary, but Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the NFL still insists that affidavits aren’t good enough, and they must give interviews.
NFL rejected written affidavits from James Harrison, Clay Matthews, Julius Peppers; demands to interview them at training camp, per source.
