Retired NFL star Michael Oher, who was subject of the 2009 film The Blind Side, has claimed in a new legal petition that the Tuohy family earned millions after establishing a conservatorship.
The legal filing claims that the movie paid the Tuohys and their two children $225,000 each, plus 2.5% of the film's "defined net proceeds."
However, Oher alleges that he doesn't know "whether the signature was forged," adding that he at "no time ever willingly or knowingly signed this document," nor was an explanation provided to him.
