Snyd Remarks

“ESPN later reported that Snyder’s lawyer, John Brownlee of Holland & Knight, believed that Snyder’s punishment was over as of Nov. 1, 2021. But Goodell refused to allow him back to league meetings. If Snyder could have lain low until the end of the season, owners and executives told ESPN, he might just have retained his team. But Snyder couldn’t resist. Sources said they were told Snyder and the NFL saw opportunity in publicizing racist and anti-gay emails from one of the league’s most prominent head coaches.” In a wild, behind-the-scenes piece, Don Van Natta Jr. and Seth Wickersham explain how the leak of Jon Gruden’s email led to the fall of Commanders owner Dan Snyder. This reads like a game between the Rams and the Cowboys. There’s no one to root for.
