Redskins WR Garcon scraps suit against FanDuel

Washington Redskins wide receiver Pierre Garçon has dismissed his lawsuit against daily fantasy sports company FanDuel.

Garçon was seeking to collect more than $5 million on behalf of NFL players who he claimed were having their names and images used by the daily fantasy company without their approval.

In the class-action lawsuit filed in October in the U.S. District Court of Maryland, Garçon said his name appeared 53 times in a 28½-minute FanDuel infomercial. The request to dismiss the case by Garçon was filed to the court on Monday without a specified reason.
