The Washington Commanders have Marc Leclercfired their vice president of content a day after the team suspended him for making offensive comments about NFL players, fans and others. A team spokesman confirmed the firing to USA TODAY Sports on Thursday.

Rael Enteen, who had been with the Commanders for four years, was recorded making the remarks during dates with a woman who was working for the O'Keefe Media Group. The undercover videos of Enteen were shared on social media.

A Commanders spokesperson said Wednesday, “The language used in the video runs counter to our values at the Commanders organization."

According to the Associated Press, James O'Keefe, who founded the group, said the interviews took place during two dates in June in Washington DC after Enteen met the woman, whose name was not disclosed, on the dating app Hinge.

Enteen said in the videos that NFL fans were “high school-educated alcoholics” and also disparaged players, commissioner Roger Goodell and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
