Former Colt Marshall Faulk Suspended Over Sexual Misconduct Suit

The NFL Network suspended former Indianapolis Colts player Marshall Faulk after a colleague accused him and two others of sexual misconduct, Associated Press reports. The news outlet says NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy on Tuesday identified Faulk, Heath Evans and Ike Taylor, saying they were "suspended from their duties at NFL Network pending an investigation into these allegations. AP reports via Bloomberg that court documents claim former wardrobe stylist Jami Cantor detailed several sexually inappropriate encounters with Evans, Faulk and Taylor - all retired NFL players - and others who have worked for the NFL Network.

The "others" named in the court documents are former NFL Network executive Eric Weinberger and former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback and former NFL Network analyst Donovan McNabb. AP reports Weinberger has reportedly been placed on leave from his current role of president of Bill Simmon's media group. McNabb, former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback and former NFL Network analyst, is now an ESPN contributor.

Faulk began his Hall of Fame career, playing five years with the Indianapolis Colts before playing another seven seasons with the St. Louis Rams. He rushed for more than 12,000 yards and won MVP in 2000, the same year the team won a Super Bowl. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2011.
