Apparel manufacturer Fanatics has filed a lawsuit against Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., alleging breach of contract.
The lawsuit filed Saturday in New York Supreme Court claims Harrison failed to fulfill his obligations and estimates damages at “millions of dollars.”
Harrison was a star wide receiver at Ohio State when he signed the 2023 deal and the Cardinals used the fourth overall pick to select him in the NFL Draft last month. Details of the contract were redacted and Harrison publicly denied its existence.
ESPN reported the deal was worth at least $1 million for autographs, signed trading cards, game-worn apparel and other marketing opportunities.
Harrison does not have an agent and was represented by his father, Hall of Fame catcher Marvin Harrison. Harrison Jr. has not yet signed the NFL Players Association’s group licensing agreement, which would allow the association to market his name, image and likeness.
The Cardinals did not immediately respond to a message from The Associated Press seeking comment.
