Commanders Fire VP Over Goodell, Jerry Jones, Fan Comments

One of the people at the Washington Commanders was fired the day after a video emerged in which he made offensive remarks about both Roger Goodell, the NFL director, and Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, the team’s owner, and their players.
On Wednesday, Rael Enteen, the now-former vice chairman of information for the Commanders, was suspended after comments he made in an obvious date with an covert columnist for the O’Keefe Media Group were made public. Enteen said gamers on the staff were racist, claimed Jones is sexist and racist, and called Goodell a”$ 50 million marionette”.
The group stated in a statement released on Wednesday that the language in the film contradicts our Commanders organization values. We have suspended the staff while an internal inspection is pending, and we will hold off on any additional comments at this time.

Enteen has reached out to Sportico via LinkedIn for remark. The NFL declined to comment, referring Sportico to the Leaders claims.
Enteen claimed in the movie that “half of the Commanders lineup was full of” light spiritual” players who argued that God was hostile toward gay people, and that another team of people were “low-income African Americans that come from a neighborhood that is inherently very homophobic.” He blasted the NFL’s diversity initiatives as expressive, branded most followers as “high school-educated alcoholics” and disparaged the knowledge of many players.
Enteen added that Jones was the real innovator of the NFL, no Goodell, who has been commissioner since 2006, but that he was the real power in charge. ” I do n’t think the commissioner of the NFL hates gay people, hates black people. Jerry Jones, who actually runs the NFL, I think he hates queer people, dark people”, he said.
James O’Keeefe, a member of the right-wing volunteer Project Veritas, made its name from undercover sting video created and edited to humiliate Democrat politicians and journalists through a media organization run by him. O’Keeefe has been subject to criminal prosecution and civil lawsuits for his actions in earlier movies.
Despite its novel ownership, the Commanders ‘ past conflicts are a warning of the Enteen video. The Commanders business was roiled by numerous investigations of sexual harassment under past steward Dan Snyder, as well as a long-standing opposition by Snyder to alter the franchise name from its past moniker, which many people thought to be a racial slur. ( Washington Football Team was the” Washington Football Team” before the group embraced the Commanders manufacturer in 2022.)
The offensive remarks also serve as a reminder of the league’s personal problems with social justice, particularly after people protested during the national song several years ago in a motion led by former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick.
( This has been updated to reflect the NFL’s response in the fourth paragraph. )
