The linebacker posted two videos of the pool tosses on Instagram:

A few weeks ago, Harrison said he was willing to meet with NFL investigators in order to discuss his ties to performance-enhancing drugs, (something several other league players have been accused of) but only on the condition that he chose the date of the interview, that it be at his house, and that league Commissioner Roger Goodell attend.
