"Former Commanders Executive Files Defamation Lawsuit"
Former Commanders executive, Jason Friedman, has filed a defamation lawsuit seeking $7.85 million in damages against the team after accusing them of defaming him. Friedman had informed the House Oversight Committee about alleged financial improprieties within the organization, to which the team responded by publicly calling him a liar and accusing him of perjury. Friedman's counsel believes he will be vindicated both by the NFL's investigation and a court of law. The lawsuit comes as the NFL's owners prepare to meet to approve the sale of the team from Daniel Snyder to Josh Harris.
