The Washington Commanders agreed to pay $1.3 million to settle a two-year investigation into how they handled the return of season-ticket deposits, according to Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares.

Pro-Football LLC, the new owner of the Commanders, will also return hundreds of thousands of dollars to fans affected by the team’s failure to return those deposits.
