Dan Snyder Fined $60M from NFL Investigation, Report Released After Commanders Sale

The NFL is fining former Washington Commanders owner Dan Snyder $60 million after an investigation into alleged interpersonal and financial misconduct.

Conclusions from an independent investigation into Snyder and the Commanders were published by the league Thursday, following the team's sale to the Harris group.

The review, led by former U.S. Attorney and SEC Chair Mary Jo White and law firm Debevoise & Plimpton, looked into harassment allegations from former Commanders employee Tiffani Johnston as well as claims of financial misconduct.

The report substantiated that Snyder sexually harassed Johnston as well as the Commanders' "deliberate underreporting" of income under Visiting Team Share (VTS) rules, which require teams to donate 40 percent of total ticket sales to a leaguewide fund.
