Report: Beth Wilkinson Hired to Review Washington NFL Team's Culture

The Washington football team has hired attorney Beth Wilkinson to review the team's protocols and "conduct a deep dive into the organization's past culture," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

It comes after Director of Pro Personnel Alex Santos and Assistant Director of Pro Personnel Richard Mann II were both fired earlier this week, per Ben Standig and Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic. Both front office executives had been with the organization for over 10 years.

As Schefter noted, the Washington Post is preparing a story on the organization's culture.

This comes amid significant changes for the franchise, including the recent announcement it will officially change the team's name after more than 80 years.

The Washington Post reported minority owners Fred Smith, Dwight Schar and Robert Rothman are also looking to sell their shares in the team, a total that combines for about a 40 percent stake.

Wilkinson will now have a role in the organization after a long career in Washington D.C. as a defense attorney. She worked within the U.S. Justice Department and recently took part in notable cases involving Brett Kavanaugh and Michael Flynn.
