Firm: DraftKings worker got data after roster set

A DraftKings employee who accidentally published internal data on the same weekend he won $350,000 on a rival site did not have access to the information before he set his winning lineup, according to an investigation performed by an outside law firm for DraftKings.

DraftKings released a statement, obtained by ESPN on Monday, saying the investigation determined that written content manager Ethan Haskell did not receive the internal data until after he had locked his lineup.

The investigation was led by former U.S. Attorney John Pappalardo of law firm Greenberg Traurig and took close to two weeks to complete.
