The Commanders released a statement saying, "The language used in the video runs counter to our values at the Commanders organization. We have suspended the employee pending an internal investigation and will reserve further comment at this time."

The recording was made during private meetings that Enteen believed were off the record. In his comments, he accused the NFL's social justice initiatives of being performative and driven by profit rather than genuine concern. 

According to ABC News, Enteen was speaking to an undercover reporter when he said, "Over 50% of our roster is white, religious, and God says, 'F— the gays.' That's their interpretation. I don't buy any of that. Another big chunk is low-income African Americans who come from a community that is inherently very homophobic."

This incident has raised questions about professional conduct and the impact of personal statements made outside official duties. As the investigation continues, Rael Enteen's position with the Commanders remains in doubt, underscoring the importance of accountability in high-profile roles.
