The NFL has come under the scrutiny of US justice after ongoing allegations and lawsuits alleging abuse and discrimination.
In the US states of New York and California, Attorneys General Letitia James and Rob Bonta said they were jointly investigating the multi-billion dollar sports organization.
The focus of the investigations is the workplace culture in the NFL offices and on the teams, which has come under scrutiny several times.
James and Bonta also want to investigate whether violations of the principles of equal pay for men and women and other anti-discrimination regulations prescribed by federal and state laws have been committed at the NFL and its immediate affiliates.
