I'm a bit surprised that the Saints are not part of the suit.

Junior Galette files $300 million lawsuit against NFL, NFLPA, Roger Goodell - ProFootballTalk

There are at least two Florida citizens who are representing themselves in legal matters this week.Former NFL defensive end Junior Galette has from time to time on social media (and possibly elsewhere) complained that he has been blackballed from pro football. On Tuesday, he took steps to prove...

Probably because the Saints were the ones that grossly overpaid him, which made him think that was what he was worth. His actions and injuries are why he was not in the NFL.

 

[BayouSAINTJoe]

SMH, Everything is somebody else's fault to some people.

 

[Alan12]

Yeah, Junior, that's exactly why you aren't still in the NFL; they're blackballing you. It absolutely couldn't have been because of this...

Screensaver material. Pre-AB ridiculousness. The dude was ahead of his time.

 

[Mamba]

What could have been.

Maybe I should sue the NFL, MLB, and NBA. They won't hire me because I'm short, a little overweight, not very athletic, and 46 years old.
I feel completely discriminated against.

BTW, I'm willing to settle for WAYYY less than Junior is shooting for. The NFL could show the judge in his case that they're willing to pay when they're obviously in the wrong. Might actually save them some real dough in the long run. (Make it happen Roger!)

 

[NewOrleansFan]

He represents himself. Yup, good luck Jr. he is probably broke and hoping for a settlement.

 

[BayouSAINTJoe]

This likely the last resort of someone who didn't use the money they earned wisely.

 

[BikesBurgersBeer]

Jr. Is one dude I have zero pity for.

What could have been.

I agree with that sentiment, however he's burnt so many bridges I haven't even looked at it that way in a looong time.

 

[Thunderchild]

He represents himself.

And, as ole Honest Abe once said, "He who represents himself has a fool for a client”. Never were truer words spoken.

 

[Thunderchild]

Jr. Is one dude I have zero pity for.

Oh, I certainly agree.

For once I'm pulling for for the NFL and Goodell. That shows just how much I dislike Jr. as a human being.

Yeah man, hard as it is to reconcile, I hope he doesn't get a cent.

There are a lot of actual good people out there that have been given a lot less than he has. I don't want to see the dude die in squalor and filth, but I don't think he deserves another dime from football.
