NFL offensive lineman Richie Incognito was announced Friday as the "first national ambassador" of an anti-bullying organization based in Los Angeles.
Boo2Bullying, a non-profit group founded in 2011 with the mission of "outreach, education, mentoring, inspiration and support for our youth and their families," said Incognito will be introduced at an event later this month. Incognito, who is currently a free agent, was at the center of a bullying scandal while a member of the Miami Dolphins in 2013.
NFL investigators concluded Incognito and two of his teammates engaged in a "pattern of harassment" against then-Dolphins offensive lineman Jonathan Martin.
