The NFL announced they have fined the Washington Football Team $10 million after concluding its investigation into the team’s workplace culture. The investigation, which began nearly a year ago, was brought on after multiple scandals and reports broke of sexual harassment and misconduct within the organization, with several Washington Post stories detailing incidents with the team’s facility.

Washington owner Dan Snyder released a statement on Thursday regarding the findings, saying that his wife, Tanya, will be assuming day-to-day responsibilities and the CEO role of the organization. The NFL also released a statement on its findings and also noted that Tanya Snyder will be assuming a role as the team’s CEO over the coming months.

Washington will lose no draft picks, will receive no suspensions and no charges will be filed against the organization.
