Daniel Snyder

Snyder as [[Washington Commanders]] owner, 2022 Daniel Marc Snyder (born November 23, 1964) is an American businessman and former owner of the Washington Commanders, an American football franchise belonging to the National Football League (NFL). He founded the marketing company Snyder Communications in 1989, amassing a wealth that led him to buy the Commanders, then known as the Redskins, from Jack Kent Cooke's estate in 1999 for $800million. Snyder is widely considered among the worst owners in the history of professional sports, with the team marred by several controversies and managing six playoff appearances, four division titles, and two playoff wins during his 24 years of ownership.

In the early 2020s, Snyder was investigated by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform for allegations of sexual harassment and enabling a toxic workplace culture with the Commanders, and by state and federal agencies for illegally withholding security deposits from season ticket holders and offering hush money to accusors. Amid financial issues and increasing pressure from the NFL, Snyder sold the Commanders in 2023 to a group headed by Josh Harris for $6.05billion, the largest sports team sale at the time. He has lived in London since 2022. Provided by Wikipedia
