Cardinals cut OT Harrison after arrest warrant issued

-

TEMPE, ARIZ. (AP) >> The Arizona Cardinals released tackle Desmond Harrison on Wednesday after police in North Carolina issued a warrant for his arrest on assault charges.

The Greensboro Police Department says the alleged assault was reported on Tuesday. Police spokesman Ron Glenn says the investigat­ion has just begun and no additional details are available, including when the alleged assault occurred.

The 25-year-old Harrison, who spent some time at Oak Ridge Military Academy in Oak Ridge, North Carolina, was claimed last month by the Cardinals after he was cut by the Cleveland Browns.

Undrafted in 2017 after playing at West Georgia, Harrison also attended Texas, where he was suspended from the team several times. SOUTH BEND, IND. (AP) >> Notre Dame Stadium is getting a layer of natural turf in preparatio­n for a profession­al soccer match.

Crews began unrolling large rolls of turf at the stadium Monday ahead of Friday’s scheduled friendly matchup between Liverpool F.C. and Borussia Dortmund.

Fenway Sports Group is the owner of the Liverpool team and the Boston Red Sox. It’s leasing the stadium as part of a threecity tour that will include preseason friendly matches at the stadium, Fenway Park and Yankee Stadium.

Steve Bush is the owner of Bush Sports Turf in Iowa. He tells The South Bend Tribune that the turf should be fully installed by Wednesday. After that, crews will roll the field to ensure a perfect playing surface before it is mowed and soccer lines are painted on the surface.
