Former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb is facing sexual harassment accusations from a former colleague at the NFL Network. He is among six ex-NFL players who have been accused by the wardrobe stylist at the NFL Network who held the position from 2006 to October 2016. Upon exiting the job, she filed a claim against McNabb and the others, stating that McNabb sent explicit texts to her during his time as an analyst at the network, which was between 2012 and 2013. Most recently, he hosted a radio show at ESPN and appeared on the “First Take” program, but has been suspended from the sports network until the claims have been investigated.
Since the Harvey Weinstein scandal took place in the early fall, sexual harassment claims against perpetrators in the workplace have risen in alarming numbers, especially those in the public eye like Donovan McNabb. From inappropriate comments and propositions to unsolicited physical contact, this type of behavior can make a job environment an intimidating place to be. Victims may experience mental distress as a result of sexual harassment or misconduct, and it could affect their performance at work and disrupt their personal lives.
