Ex-NFL Network employee files sexual harassment lawsuit
A former NFL Network makeup artist who says on-air talent sexually harassed and assaulted her has filed a lawsuit.
Erin McParland filed a suit Tuesday against NFL Enterprises, former player Eric Davis, and other unknown defendants for being "subjected to ongoing and continuing sexual harassment by current and former on-air talent," Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports. The suit also details harassment from Michael Irvin.
McParland says she complained to NFL Network about Davis and Irvin. According to her, the NFL never responded to her complaints against Irvin, and only addressed Davis' behavior after another employee complained about him.
Jami Cantor, a former wardrobe stylist for NFL Network, amended a civil complaint against the network in December, saying employees - including on-air talent - sexually harassed her while she worked there. The network suspended three analysts named in Cantor's lawsuit.
McParland shared her account of Davis' behavior with Tim Rohan of The MMQB in December after the details of Cantor's suit became public.
