The National Football League (NFL) is standing by its partnership with Jay-Z's Roc Nation despite allegations of sexual assault against the rapper and businessman.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell addressed the allegations on Wednesday, stating that the league's relationship with Roc Nation remains unchanged.
In 2019, the NFL entered into a long-term partnership with Roc Nation to help choose artists to perform at games and bring attention to social justice issues. Goodell praised the partnership, stating that Roc Nation has provided "a lot of value" to the league. The partnership has helped the NFL to bring attention to social justice issues and to provide a platform for artists to perform at games.
The allegations against Jay-Z stem from a lawsuit filed by a woman who claims she was sexually assaulted by Jay-Z and Sean "Diddy" Combs at a party in 2000.
Jay-Z has denied the allegations, calling them "heinous" and urging the accuser to file a criminal complaint. The NFL's decision to stand by its partnership with Roc Nation has sparked controversy, with some critics calling for the league to sever ties with the company.
