NFLPA Ready For Legal Battle Should NFL Suspend Harrison, Others

Earlier this week, Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison received a letter from the league that stated a suspension could be forthcoming for him should he decide against interviewing with the league as part of their ongoing PEDS investigation stemming from accusations made against him and other high profile NFL players during a December documentary on Al Jazeera America. While it’s yet to be seen whether or not Harrison and the other players named in that report will ultimately cave and submit to a league interview by the Aug. 25 deadline, George Atallah, the assistant executive director of external affairs for the NFLPA, talked about the ongoing battle during a Wednesday morning interview with Ross Tucker on The Dan Patrick Show.
