Law Firm Initiates Lawsuit for Tortious Interference Against the NFL

On behalf of Robert “Cary” McNair, Jr., the Buzbee Law Firm has initiated a lawsuit seeking more than $100 million in New York Supreme Court against the National Football League for alleged tortious interference with contract. The filing stems from an alleged conspiracy between Houston Texans Owner’s Rep Cal McNair and the NFL wherein the NFL allegedly worked to unseat Cary McNair from his position on the trust board that owns the Texans, and from his position as CEO of the billion-dollar investment arm of the McNair family, McNair Interests. The alleged reason for the NFL’s interference was Cary McNair’s repeated and incessant questions and critiques about the multiple scandals involving the Houston Texans football team.

The lawsuit will bring a claim for tortious interference under Texas Law. According to Tony Buzbee, lead counsel for Cary McNair, “We allege that Cary McNair had the courage to voice his concerns about important management issues regarding serious, high-profile scandals involving the Houston Texans. We believe the evidence will be clear and overwhelming that the NFL intervened in the McNair family business to remove Cary McNair from his position as CEO, in an effort to silence Cary McNair. He won’t be silenced.”
