Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison said in an affidavit sent to the NFL that he never met nor communicated with the source of a media report that linked him and other players to the use of performance-enhancing drugs.Harrison has insisted that league officials have to provide credible evidence before he agrees to an interview. The NFL Players Association sent a letter on Harrisons behalf along with the signed affidavit to NFL executive Adolpho Birch on Monday.Neither the CBA nor the Policy state that a player must agree to an in-person interview based upon random, baseless verbal remarks or face discipline for a failure to cooperate with a league investigation, union attorney Heather M. McPhee wrote.In the absence of the existence of any documented, credible evidence, this affidavit constitutes reasonable cooperation by (Harrison).The other active players implicated by the Al-Jazeera report are Green Bay linebackers Clay Matthews and Julius Peppers, and free-agent linebacker Mike Neal, who played the past six seasons with the Packers. Peyton Manning, who is now retired, also was cited in Al-Jazeeras doping report in December.The NFL first notified Matthews, Peppers, Harrison and Neal about its investigation into the report on Jan. 11.Al-Jazeera America reported allegations by Charlie Sly, who worked as an intern at an anti-aging clinic. But Sly later recanted his claims.I have met thousands of people during my career, but to the best of my knowledge and recollection, I have never met the individual who is apparently named Charles Sly, Harrison said in the affidavit.The 38-year-old Harrison, who was The Associated Press Defensive Player of the Year in 2008, also said: I have never violated the NFL Policy Performance Enhancing Substances.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Sam Hubbard Bengals Jersey .

LOUIS -- St. WINNIPEG -- There will be many more showdowns between Patrik Laine and Connor MacDavid, but this one could be the coolest of all time.Probably literally and perhaps figuratively.The two young guns and their teammates on the Winnipeg Jets and Edmonton Oilers, respectively, wage battle in the Heritage Classic on Sunday afternoon on a spectacular outdoor rink in the middle of Investors Group Field, home to the Canadian Football Leagues Winnipeg Blue Bombers.The forecast calls for a high of 45 degrees with a 70 percent of rain showers in the morning, but the precipitation is expected to end several hours before the 2 p.m. CT opening faceoff.Laine is coming off a three-goal performance -- his hat trick was scored in less than 23 minutes -- including the tying and winning goals in a 5-4 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday. The Oilers, meanwhile, defeated the St. Louis Blues 3-1 the same night with McDavid picking up a goal and an assist.The teams will wear throwback jerseys to pay homage to their days in the World Hockey Association, the so-called Rebel League which operated from 1972-79. The Jets and Oilers were two of the four teams to merge into the NHL -- the Quebec Nordiques and Hartford Whalers were the others -- for the 1979-80 season.More than 33,000 people will be in the stands for the game. The Jets sport a 2-2-0 record while the Oilers are 4-1-0.Jets captain Blake Wheeler said the non-stop events surrounding the Heritage Classic weekend have been a circus.We havent really had a whole lot of time as a teeam to try to focus ourselves, he told the Winnipeg Free Press.dddddddddddd But I think once we come into the rink (Sunday), its going to be pretty clear what the objective is. The circumstances and the big stage aside, it is just another game and we need to be prepared to play a certain way if were going to give ourselves a chance to win (Sunday).The teams are experimenting with tinted visors and eye black to counter any glare off the ice.Laine said he didnt notice any difference between the ice at IGF and the Jets home rink, the MTS Centre. Both sheets are artificial.I feel slow on every ice, he told the Free Press. I think its going to be just fine.McDavid, the newly minted Oilers captain, said he was looking forward to playing outside, although it didnt take him back to his childhood as it would with many other Canadian kids.We tried to have a rink one winter but we had a small backyard. We wanted a pool and my dad wanted a deck and a hot tub and that kind of put a dent in the whole backyard thing, McDavid told the Edmonton Journal.In the Heritage Classics opening act, the Winnipeg Jets alumni defeated their Oilers counterparts 6-5 on Saturday afternoon thanks to a last-second penalty shot goal by 46-year-old Teemu Selanne. Known as The Finnish Flash, Selanne was clearly the most dangerous player on the ice, finishing with two goals and three assists. He retired following the 2013-14 season.
