Blog Article
With the entire NFL world posting up in Phoenix, Arizona, for the NFL owners meetings, Roger Goodell met with the media to discu s the investigation into Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder's alleged workplace misconduct, the sale proceeding of the Commanders, the management of "Thursday Night Football" scheduling, and where things stand with Brian Flores' lawsuit against the NFL for its lack of diversity in the head coaching ranks.Here are some of the most notable developments from Goodell's pre s conference:The NFL is adamant about releasing the findings of Mary Jo White's investigation of Daniel Snyder and his workplace misconduct."Both the investigation and sale of the Commanders are ongoing," Goodell said Tuesday. "The Washington Commanders are obviously the ones conducting the proce s on the sale, and when there is a transaction they will notify us and we will proceed on that one. Mary Jo White gave a brief update on her Teemu Selanne Jersey proce s, and once she concludes that investigation , we will brief the ownership and make the findings public."Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, one of the league's top power brokers, Tuesday that he already knows "everything in the report" -- a statement that Goodell refuted while at the podium. "Well, that would be impo sible because the only person I know that knows anything about the investigation is Mary Jo Joonas Donskoi Kids Jersey White and her counterparts," Goodell said. "Mary Jo White is a profe sional; she's not giving acce s to anybody. I'm comfortable about that."The NFL is looking into ways to provide top matchups for its fans on "Thursday Night Football."After it was announced that instead of one, reigning Super Bowl MVP and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes tweeted his disdain, something Goodell then addre sed. Patrick Mahomes II (@PatrickMahomes) "I don't think we're putting Amazon over our players. The data doesn't show higher injury rate. I hear from players who also love the 10 days after a Thursday night game. We have to try to balance all of it."New York Giants owner John Mara called the idea of flexing a team into Thursday Night Football, even with two weeks notice, "abusive" after that was discu sed at the league meetings before the vote ."I think being flexed into Monday night is inconsiderate and to flex a game back to Thursday to me is just abusive," Mara said,. "I'm adamantly opposed to it. Fortunately, it didn't get enough votes today, but it will probably be re-visited in May." When asked about Mara's comments, Goodell said the league looks at "all the impacts" when making these kinds of decisions."Providing the best matchups for our fans is what we do, but we look at all the impacts," Goodell said. "It's a very important thing to balance between the in-stadium fans and those who watch on TV. There isn't anybody in that room, anybody in any of our organizations, that don't put fans first." Goodell dodged making a direct comment on Brian Flores' lawsuit against the league that alleges discriminatory practices when it comes to hiring head coaches. Goodell said the league will "keep an eye" on Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator , as a judge allowed it to Gabriel Landeskog Women Jersey proceed to court in March."I'm a huge fan of Brian Flores. He's a great football coach, and I have great respect for him as a man. The Minnesota Vikings are lucky to have him."
