NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has informed all New York City-based employees to work from home to next week after the tragic mass shooting that took place at their headquarters on Monday night.
Goodell was in communication with all league employees on Monday, where he said an employee was “seriously injured”, though in steady state at a local hospital after the mass shooting that took the life to four, including a police officer before the gunman took his own life.
Pakinomist Digital obtained the latest “Notice from the Commissioner”, which stated the league’s plans to have all New York employees working externally.

“For those of you based on our New York office, plan to work externally at least through the end of next week (August 8),” the note read. “The office remains closed during this time and we ask that you are not trying to enter the building until we confirm that it is ready for us to return.”
Goodell also said in the memo that “our hearts go out to all the victims and their families, and we are deeply grateful to the first respondents and medical staff who acted so quickly and continue to care.”

New York City Mayor Eric Adams revealed on Tuesday on Fox 5 Ny’s “Good Day New York” that the gunman was trying to target the NFL’s headquarters but took the wrong elevator bank. He said the floor he took was to Rudin Management.
Adams added the gunman, who was identified as 27-year-old Shane Tamura, referred to have suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy, better known as CTE. He had a complaint with NFL.
“He seemed to have blamed the NFL,” said the mayor. “The NFL headquarters were located in the building and he mistakenly went up the wrong elevator bank.”
Adams said investigators reviewed “suicide note” as the gunman left. An official told Pakinomist Digital that the three-page note was found in the gunman’s wallet and referred to CTE and expressed anger to the NFL over the degenerative brain disease.
Goodell’s former memo made sure to remind employees of HR resources that the company has to undergo this tried and out time. He repeated just as much in this memo.

“We are strongest when we meet and support each other,” read Goodell’s memo. “To provide our society, we will hold a virtual town hall tomorrow, where we can connect, share and support each other.
“This has been a challenging time for our entire team. Continue taking care of yourself and each other. If you need further support, don’t hesitate to reach your manager or Mr. We are here for you.”
