James Harrison Among Others Named In December PED Report To Be Interviewed By NFL

You might recall that back in December, current Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison was one of several players named in an Al Jazeera documentary on the use of performance-enhancing drugs in professional football.

The documentary, which largely centered around former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning, who was an active player at the time, featured a Texas-based pharmacist by the name of Charlie Sly, who dropped Harrison’s name as among the professional athletes that make up his clientele for under the table pharmaceuticals.

Though nothing meaningful has since surfaced as a result of that finding, either positively or negatively—Manning was considering suing the network but appears to have chosen not to; no discipline has come down upon those named—the story doesn’t seem to be over.
