Willie McGinest’s time at the NFL Network reportedly came to an end Thursday after the company parted ways with the analyst and former Patriots star amid an ongoing lawsuit stemming from his December arrest in Los Angeles.
Front Office Sports was the first to report the news.
The news of McGinest’s departure comes nearly a month after the three-time Super Bowl champion was charged with two counts of felony assault following an incident at a West Hollywood nightclub on Dec. 9. McGinest, 51, has not appeared on-air since he was suspended following his arrest on Dec. 19, and currently faces charges of assault with a deadly weapon and assault by means of force likely to cause great bodily injury.
