NFL Players Association leadership is under fire for recent revelations over confidential rulings. Here's what you need to know.

Howell had been under intense scrutiny in a series of recent controversies and leaves the job after two years.

NFLPA executive director Lloyd Howell Jr. was accused of sexual-discrimination and retaliation in a 2011 lawsuit stemming from his time with Booz Allen, a consulting company. It's unclear whether NFLPA members were informed about that lawsuit when they elected Howell to be their next executive director in 2023, according to ESPN.
