The NFL has fined the Washington Football Team $10 million after an independent investigation found the organization's workplace was "highly unprofessional," particularly for women, the league announced Thursday.
Driving the news: The misconduct and harassment allegations by previous employees over a 15-year period became public following an investigation by The Washington Post last summer.
Governance bodies in all three NCAA divisions on Wednesday approved an interim policy allowing college athletes to profit from their name, image and likeness (NIL).
Why it matters: The decision marks a seismic revamp of the NCAA's amateurism bylaws and allows athletes to begin profiting from their personal brands starting Thursday. It also comes just one day before NIL laws in at least eight states take effect.
