The NFL’s Mary Jo White-led investigation opened in Feb. 2022, after the league hired her to investigate former Washington employee Tiffani Johnson’s harassment allegation against Commanders owner Daniel Snyder.
As of July 20, White’s investigation into Snyder, the Commanders hasn’t been made public. Is the investigation over? Is the NFL waiting for the sale of the Commanders from Snyder to Josh Harris?
As the NFL owners converged in Minneapolis Thursday to vote on the sale of the franchise, there is an update on White — sort of.
According to Mark Maske of The Washington Post, White entered the room with NFL owners to presumably update them on her investigation into Snyder and the Commanders.
Mary Jo White just entered the room in which NFL owners are meeting in Bloomington, Minn. It is anticipated that she will brief the owners on her investigation of the Commanders and Daniel Snyder.

Owners are expected to approve the sale of the Commanders Thursday. Therefore, there should be actual news on White’s investigation at some point soon, right?
Longtime Washington writer Rick Snider weighed in on what’s likely happening.
Gee, Mary Jo White reportedly telling owners about Dan Snyder just as the latter is leaving. Coincidence? They just waited until not needing to sanction Snyder.

It will all be over soon.
