A settlement has been reached in the long-running lawsuit that alleged New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning and the team conspired to pass off fake game-worn memorabilia.
The Giants said a settlement had been reached in a statement to USA TODAY Sports Monday night.
"The compromise agreement, entered into by all parties, should not be viewed as supporting any allegations, claims or defenses," Giants spokesperson Karen Kessler said in an email. "All parties are grateful to have the matter, which began in 2014, concluded and are now focused on football, the fans and the future."
The trial was set to begin in Hackensack, N.J., on Monday with jury selection, but was pushed back to next week due to a death in the family of one of the attorneys.
