Disgruntled running back Mike Rozier wants to join his former coach Jerry Glanville in Atlanta, and the Houston Oilers are trying to appease those wishes.

“We’d like to trade Mike,” Oiler General Manager Mike Holovak said. “I think it would be good for him. He wants to play football and it would be an opportunity for him to play.”

The Oilers are reportedly seeking a conditional draft choice for Rozier, the 1983 Heisman Trophy winner from Nebraska.

The Boston chapter of the National Organization for Women has called on women to avoid buying goods made by Remington Products Inc. after an alleged locker room incident involving players and a female reporter and the reactions of team officials, including owner Victor Kiam, who also owns Remington.

Lisa Olson of the Boston Herald said she was harassed by Zeke Mowatt and other players as she conducted an interview Sept. 17, a practice day.

Mowatt, in a prepared statement, said that his “religious values and my character would never allow me to do or say anything as disrespectful as has been reported, to any human being.”
