Commanders release statement on NFL investigation

The NFL made a big move in its investigation into the latest allegations against Washington owner Daniel Snyder by hiring Mary Jo White to lead the investigation.

Shortly after the news broke, the Washington Commanders released a statement announcing that it would cooperate fully with White, courtesy of Nicki Jhabvala of the Washington Post.

The Washington Commanders are pleased the NFL has appointed Mary Jo White to look into the recent allegations made by Tiffani Johnston. The Commanders have always been intent on having a full and fair investigation of this matter conducted, and to releasing the results of that investigation. Given the team’s confidence in Ms. White’s ability to conduct such a full and fair investigation, the Commanders will not separately pursue an investigation and will cooperate fully with Ms. White.

Washington had initially announced it had hired the Pallas Global Group to lead the investigation on Feb. 9 before the NFL stepped in and said the league would be leading the investigation.
