The House Committee on Oversight and Reform issued a letter earlier this week detailing alleged financial improprieties by the Commanders and team owner Dan Snyder.
The letter alleges that the franchise “may have engaged in a troubling, long-running, and potentially unlawful pattern of financial conduct that victimized thousands of team fans and the National Football League.”
A spokesperson for D.C. attorney general Karl Racine told The Washington Post that their office takes the allegations in the letter very seriously.
“We take these allegations against the Washington Commanders very seriously, and if we find evidence that they have violated District law, we won’t hesitate to take action,” Racine’s spokesperson said.
