Michael Bidwill spoke. Briefly. So, before that, I’ll set the scene: Two days before the Super Bowl—when all eyes were elsewhere—the Cardinals owner received a lawsuit filed against him. But in Arizona, where an 8-9 season left them outside the playoff picture, this was the bigger headline. A former personal assistant, a decorated Navy veteran and single mother, was suing Bidwill for workplace discrimination, claiming she was “continuously tormented” in an effort to push her out.
So, in an interview with The Arizona Republic, Bidwill added more context to it: “Allegations can be made, and they get a lot of attention. But they’re just that: They’re allegations.” His stance? The facts will clear his name.
Neuheisel, however, tells a different story. She claims Bidwill repeatedly harassed her, mocked her Catholic faith, and even pressured her to falsify information on travel documents. The lawsuit also alleges that Bidwill wanted to replace her with someone “young, beautiful, and athletic.” Serious accusations—and ones that could have major legal consequences.
So, where does this leave the Cardinals? Stuck in a legal storm, with their owner at the center of it. The NFL has seen its fair share of off-field scandals, but this one has layers.
