The NFL cannot publicly release the findings of its internal investigation of the Washington Commanders without the explicit permission of owner Daniel Snyder, according to a document released Friday morning by the congressional committee investigating the NFL.
The House Committee for Oversight and Reform also released a second document Friday that shows how the team requested a "written investigation" from Beth Wilkinson's law firm when she was hired to conduct an internal investigation of the team.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has previously contended the league cannot release the internal investigation because Wilkinson presented her findings orally.
