The fallout from those leaks led to Gruden resigning from his job with the Raiders. Gruden was found to have used sexist, racist and anti-gay language in emails with former WFT president Bruce Allen. Several groups, including the NFLPA, called on the NFL to release the full details of the investigation after emails sent by former Las Vegas Raiders coach Jon Gruden, which were discovered in the investigation, became public. The NFL did not release detailed findings of the investigation to the public. In response, the NFL fined the team $10 million and Snyder stepped aside from handling day-to-day duties with the team. Coburn and Nunez said they believe the investigation conducted was an "important step" in addressing widespread harassment against women in the NFL but failing to publicly disclose the results shows the NFL is "more interested in protecting wealthy owners and preserving misogynist and abusive structures than in reckoning with its cultural problems."įollowing two Washington Post reports in which more than a dozen former team employees came forward with allegations of a toxic culture within the organization, an independent investigation found rampant sexual harassment within the WFT that went unchecked for several years under the stewardship of owner Dan Snyder.
