The Washington Commanders have been in a legal battle for quite some time now. However, the only person to really blame is the owner Dan Snyder. He's been accused of multiple allegations, inappropriate work environments, and sexual harassment of the cheerleaders. Now, it sounds like Snyder could be in trouble for financial reasons as well.
According to Front Office Sports, “the Commanders allegedly used ‘two books' to track finances. This allowed Dan Snyder to “paint different pictures of the team’s money situation.” Essentially, Snyder is being accused of fabricating the finances of the franchise.
This is not an ideal situation for the Commanders. In fact, these are serious allegations that could lead to Dan Snyder's departure from the NFL. So, not only did Snyder generate a hostile work environment, but it sounds like he may have lied about the financial status of his team. Things are going downhill fast and it could become much uglier before it gets better.
It's an ugly situation for the Commanders and the NFL in general. Snyder has been under scrutiny for quite some time and the clock might finally be ticking. We'll see how it all plays out, but it's not looking great for Dan Snyder. Since starting their investigation, Congress has found more and more information to dig into than not.
Keep an eye on Dan Snyder, as more news could surface at any moment. For now, Congress will monitor the situation in Washington while the franchise focuses on the upcoming NFL Draft. Regardless of the outcome, the Commanders should become a more reputable organization moving forward.
