Roger Goodell Accepts Invitation to Testify at Hearing, per Report

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has accepted the U.S. House of Representatives’ Committee on Oversight and Reform’s invitation to testify at a June 22 hearing as part of the investigation into the Commanders’ workplace culture, according to The Washington Post.

Goodell will testify remotely at the hearing. On Wednesday, Commanders owner Dan Snyder declined his invitation to testify at the same hearing.

Since Oct. 2021, the committee has been investigating Washington’s workplace culture, how the league handled misconduct reports, “the NFL’s role in setting and enforcing standards across the League, and legislative reforms needed to address these issues across the NFL and other workplaces,” according to the committee’s press release from earlier this month.
