Analysis: Washington Football Team investigation with Ben Standig

Ben Standig, with The Athletic, discusses the latest with the Washington Football Team investigation.

"Sexual harassment victims should share their stories when they are ready not when you want them to," Griffin tweeted in response to a question about why he hadn’t come forward with the information before. "The book is not about other people’s experience with sexual harassment in Washington. It's about my experience with sexual harassment in Washington. Hopefully, you will listen."

FOX 5 read the tweet to Griffin’s co-author for the book, longtime NFL reporter Gary Myers.

"I think what he tweeted back and what you just read is pretty self-explanatory," Myers said. "I’m not trying to be evasive or vague here, but I mean, this is a very personal story for him and any, you know, further explanation or to expound on this any deeper, I really think it should come from him."

"When Fitz went down, if Ron Rivera decided that Robert was the best one, he felt with a clear conscious he could go back even knowing this book was coming out because the experiences that he had there in four years, the people that made it really tough for him and at times miserable, were no longer there," Meyers said

The book, titled "Surviving Washington," is scheduled to be released in August of next year.
