Lawsuit filed against New York Giants involving workplace violence

The New York Giants might not make it through this offseason without an off the field controversy, but this one doesn’t have to do with players. Controversies about staff are rarer but they do happen, and this looks like one of them.

Specifically, a lawsuit has been filed against the team by former video director Dave Maltese according to ESPN.

Dave Maltese was fired in March for what the suit describes as “retaliatory purposes” in violation of CEPA, New Jersey’s whistleblower statute. He claims this was a result of the complaint and report he filed following an alleged physical assault and attack he witnessed by current Giants director of football data and innovation Ty Siam against assistant video director Steven Venditti.
