Lawsuit: Ex-employee claims Texans ignored sexual harassment complaints

http://www.khou.com/sports/nfl/texans/former-texans-employee-claims-negligence-sues-organization-ex-colleague/514007099

"According to the lawsuit, the Texans and former football operations manager Jason Lowrey “fostere(ed) an Alpha-Male environment, where continuous improprieties toward female employees were not punished. In fact, they were rewarded.”

 

The NFL should investigate that is if they dont want the inmates running the prison

I suspect this is just the beginning.

Similar to the Nassar situation, it takes time before victims feel comfortable coming out but eventually the flood gates will open (and no I'm not comparing sexual assault to sexual misconduct, I'm comparing how victims respond).

I could see this potentially affecting all major league sports in the near future.

This potentially complicates things for Jerry Richardson. 

The NFL is not going to want to look bad or appear that they're taking these things lightly.

Yeah and if they hire Hurney... It's going to look not only like he is a sex offender but a racist too.

Your point is? How many Hollywood types embroiled in scandal have we seen lately? Politicians from all over the country. Sexual harrassment happens in all walks of life in all parts of the country, and is equally atrocious no matter where the prep is from, right?

I hope all the guilty people get exposed, but some good people are getting caught up in this poo too. A good buddy of mine recently had to spend thousands to defend himself against false claims even though he had proof that he wasn't even in the same state as his accuser at the time of the accusation.

Guilty until proven innocent. As a long time  criminal defense attorney, I hate that this is often the case.

    • Per Bill Barnwell  Broncos part ways with a CB on the roster bubble Broncos get: 2026 seventh-round pick Panthers get: CB Damarri Mathis The Broncos have a rare problem among NFL teams: too many cornerbacks. ESPN's Jeff Legwold projects they could move on from Mathis, who was very good as a rookie in 2022 before losing his starting job after the defense's slow start in 2023. He played just 27 defensive snaps after Week 6 that season and 80 more across 10 games in 2024. With the Broncos using their 2025 first-round pick on cornerback Jahdae Barron, they could justify moving on from Mathis, who might not be active on game days even if he sticks around. Mathis' best season came with defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero in Denver, and he hasn't been able to reach those same heights since Evero left for Carolina. The Panthers are set with Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson and nickel corner Chau Smith-Wade as their three starting corners, but Mathis could push the 28-year-old Jackson and serve as Carolina's primary reserve on the outside. Mathis is owed $3.4 million in 2025, so Denver might essentially buy a draft pick by eating some of that cash, similar to what the Commanders did when they sent running back Brian Robinson Jr. to the 49ers.
    • They can get fuged for a 6th and 7th. Doesn't make sense for us for anything less than a 4th and them paying a majority of his salary.
