The league has a second chance to do the right thing in Washington ... in more ways than one.
Twenty pages’ worth of alleged financial improprieties—committed by the Commanders, implicating owner Daniel Snyder and compiled by the U.S. House Oversight and Reform Committee—were released to the press Tuesday en route to their intended destination, the Federal Trade Commission. There, Snyder may find himself under investigation.
As first reported by The Washington Post, a longtime Commanders employee claims that under direction from his superiors, he would lap funds from NFL-related revenue into some other bucket, like a Kenny Chesney concert or a Notre Dame football game at Washington’s stadium, so the organization wouldn’t have to share said revenue with the league.
