Report: Dan Snyder withheld payments from minority owners which led to lawyers, attempts to sell, and a name change

You knew there was more to the story, and now we’ve got a detailed report that goes into detail about what led the Washington Redskins three minority owners to try to sell their stake in the team, and eventually play a big part in the football team changing it’s name to...the Football Team. There are still a lot of things that we don’t know, and we might never find out the full story, but for now we’ve got a pretty big story from the New York Times that peels the curtains back.

The story that the Times tells begins with team owner Dan Snyder withholding annual dividends from three of his minority owners who have been friends and business partners with him for decades.
