NFL Network Boss Resigns Amid Sexual Harassment Lawsuit, Talent Suspensions
NFL Network chief David Eaton has resigned from his post after a sexual harassment lawsuit was filed against his channel last week, which resulted in suspensions for a trio of on-air talent. Eaton has also been recently criticized for his public interactions with escorts and porn stars on Twitter — he’s since deleted the social media account.
“Tuesday night David Eaton tendered his resignation from NFL Media effective immediately,” NFL Network spokesperson Alex Riethmiller told TheWrap via a statement.
As president of NFL Media, ABC News alum Eaton also oversaw the NFL’s website.
