NFL owners would move toward a vote to remove Daniel Snyder from ownership of the Washington Commanders if he doesn’t sell the franchise, sources told the Washington Post’s Mark Maske, Nicki Jhabvala, and Liz Clarke.
Snyder demanded that the NFL and other franchise owners indemnify him against future legal liability and costs if he sells the team, per the Washington Post. The 58-year-old reportedly said he’d sue the league if his requests aren’t fulfilled.
Franchise owners reportedly called Snyder’s demands “ridiculous” and “absurd.” They believe any vote to remove Snyder would survive a legal challenge.
