Steelers linebacker James Harrison has been informed that his meeting with NFL investigators is set for 11 a.m. Thursday at the Steelers practice facility.
The date meets the requirement the league sent out last week that Harrison and two other players — Green Bay Packers linebackers Clay Matthews and Julius Peppers — must submit to interviews by Aug. 25 or face possible indefinite suspension. Harrison, Matthews and Peppers were among five players named in an Al Jazeera America documentary linking them to performance enhancing drugs.
Even though the source for the report later recanted his story, the NFL decided to investigate the matter.
