NEW YORK, N.Y. – The New York Giants are facing turbulence off the field after co-owner and chairman Steve Tisch was named in newly unsealed Department of Justice documents connected to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
According to federal records released January 30, the DOJ’s archive contains more than 3 million pages of material, including roughly 440 references to Tisch in 2013-era email exchanges. The messages reportedly show Epstein introducing Tisch to various women and describing them in objectifying terms. In one instance, Tisch appeared to inquire whether women mentioned by Epstein were “pro or civilian,” while also offering the financier suite tickets to a Giants game.
Tisch, 76, an Oscar-winning producer known for “Forrest Gump,” issued a public statement acknowledging what he described as a “brief association” with Epstein that included email discussions about “adult women, film projects, and investments.” Tisch said he “deeply regrets” the interactions and called Epstein “a terrible person.”
The NFL confirmed on February 2 that Commissioner Roger Goodell has ordered a review to determine whether the communications violate the league’s personal conduct policy. As of this week, Tisch has not been charged with any crime, and no evidence suggests illegal conduct.
Tisch and the Mara family have co-owned the Giants since 2005, following his late father Bob Tisch’s acquisition of a 50 percent stake in the franchise in 1991. League officials have emphasized that the inquiry will focus on reputational and ethical considerations under the NFL’s ownership standards.
