ESPN: Former Cardinals executive Terry McDonough filed formal grievance against owner Michael Bidwill, accusing him of cheating, gross misconduct.
Terry McDonough claims burner phones were used to communicate with Steve Keim during the GM"s 5-game suspension in the summer of 2018.Former Arizona Cardinals senior personnel executive Terry McDonough has filed an arbitration claim to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell accusing team owner Michael Bidwill of gross misconduct, including cheating, discrimination and harassment, according to a detailed report released Tuesday by ESPN.
ESPN described McDonough as a “former” employee. He had been with the Cardinals since 2013, serving as a scout and then as Vice President of Player Personnel until apparently being demoted into his senior executive role, and as of Tuesday afternoon his name had been removed from the list of staff members on the team's website.as head coach. Keim, according to Bidwill, stepped down as GM at the end of this past season for health reasons and resigned from the organization.
“We are reluctantly obliged to provide a public response along with broader context for some disappointing and irresponsible actions by Terry McDonough,” said Jim McCarthy, an external public relations advisor to the Cardinals. “Claims he has made in an arbitration filing as wildly false, reckless, and an opportunistic ploy for financial gain.
The NFL told ESPN on Tuesday that it had received the arbitration claim. The Cardinals have 20 days to formally respond to McDonough’s charges under the NFL’s dispute resolution procedural guidelines. Goodell will then determine “whether the dispute is football-oriented … or not football-oriented,” and whether the dispute is subject to arbitration.”
