NFL, Roger Goodell, Commanders, Dan Snyder Sued; Accused of Misleading Customers

Washington, D.C. attorney general Karl A. Racine announced Thursday his office is filing a consumer protection lawsuit against the NFL, Roger Goodell, the Washington Commanders and Dan Snyder.

Racine said the lawsuit stems from accusations all four parties colluded to deceive D.C. residents about the investigation into a toxic workplace culture within the Commanders organization.

After public reporting revealed that sexual misconduct, harassment, and misogyny ran rampant for decades at the team, the defendants promised DC residents that the league was going to fix this toxic culture, including by fully cooperating with an independent investigation.
