Former Steelers quarter Kordell Stewart has been awarded $3 million in damages from a blogger who claimed he and Stewart had a homosexual relationship, according to WCNC.
“The actions of these irresponsible people are harmful and damaging the brand that I and others like me have worked very hard for,” said Stewart, who spent 11 years in the NFL and played for the Steelers, Bears and Ravens.
Stewart, 44, sued Andrew Caldwell, Jarrius Keyn Moon and Catalyst Next LLC last year. The suit claimed that Caldwell, a cast member on “The Gospel Truth” reality show, said that he and Stewart dated to drive up interest in the show.
