NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday from the league's owners meetings in Irving, Texas that Washington Football Team owner Dan Snyder did not hinder the investigation into his franchise last year.
According to a Washington Post article, Snyder tried to prevent attorney Beth Wilkinson from interviewing a woman who had accused the owner of sexual misconduct in 2009. The woman was ultimately paid a $1.6 million settlement.
But Goodell told reporters that Snyder's efforts "didn't interfere with the work that our investigator did."
However, members of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform who have pushed the NFL to release documents related to the investigation now want more answers from the NFL regarding Snyder's reported attempts to block Wilkinson's investigation.
