In November 2020, Resh joined the organization as its Chief Financial Officer (CFO). He was previously the CFO for NBC Universal Telemundo Enterprises, Roc Nation, and Sontiq.
Resh was part of a huge restructuring of the front office that took place following a Washington Post report back in July 2020 and an ensuing investigation started by the NFL.
The investigation into the team’s workplace culture came after 50 former employees complained of encountering sexual harassment or verbal abuse. Resh’s exit from the Commanders is another possible call for Snyder to sell the franchise.
Washington Commanders and their ongoing issues
On top of Resh’s resignation, Washington’s defensive coordinator, Jack Del Rio, found himself mired in controversy. In June, Del Rio made some comments regarding the infamous Capitol riots of January 6, 2021, and was fined $100K by head coach Ron Rivera.
He took to his now-deleted Twitter account to say that the riots on January 6, 2021, were a “dust-up.”
As part of the aforementioned investigation, Synder testified for more than 10 hours in a private video deposition with the House Oversight Committee back in July. Former employee Tiffani Johnston accused Snyder of inappropriately touching and harassing her at a work dinner.
We’ll see how another move in the Washington Commanders’ front office impacts Snyder and his ownership of the franchise.
