Days after an ESPN report surfaced that Commanders owner Dan Snyder had used private investigators to dig up “dirt” on NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and several other team owners, Snyder sent a letter to the rest of the league’s owners decrying the report and denying that he had done so.
In the letter, Snyder described the ESPN report as “false and malicious” and denied having ever hired private investigators to follow Goodell or other owners.
“That is patently false and intended to erode the trust and goodwill between owners that I take quite seriously,” Snyder wrote.
