The ESPN bombshell report from Tuesday morning gave insight into the NFL’s feelings on Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder. And also Snyder’s plan if the owners attempt to remove him as Washington’s owner.
Well, according to Rob Maaddi of the Associated Press, there is no plan to vote on Snyder’s status as owner of the Commanders at next week’s owner’s meetings.
I'm told there is no plan to vote on Dan Snyder’s status as owner of the Washington #Commanders at next week’s owners’ meetings in New York.

This news is sure to disappoint Washington fans, who’ve grown tired of constant negative news surrounding the once-proud franchise.
Of course, this doesn’t mean it can’t happen. As Mike Florio of NBC Sports noted, when a group of 24 NFL owners decides the time is right to vote Snyder out, they can do it whenever and wherever they choose.
There is also the possibility that the other owners are waiting until Mary Jo White’s investigation is complete. As the ESPN report noted, the other owners fear what Snyder could do, so having White’s investigation, along with Washington’s financial struggles and failed stadium search, could give some owners what they need in order to potentially remove Snyder.
