Commanders' Daniel Snyder Declines Request to Appear at Workplace Misconduct Hearing

Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder has declined a request to appear at a House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing to discuss the NFL franchise's workplace misconduct.

Axios' Hans Nichols reported Wednesday that Karen Patton Seymour, an attorney for Snyder, wrote in a letter to the committee that his legal team has concerns about due process.

"Although Mr. Snyder remains willing to cooperate with the Committee—as he has done in the past— for the reasons set forth below, he is unable to accept the Committee's invitation to testify at the scheduled hearing," Seymour wrote in the four-page letter.
