NFL cheerleaders have been paid a total of $1.8million to settle allegations of voyeurism against a senior Dallas Cowboys executive.They were presented with $399,523.27 each, according to ESPN.Members of the Dallas Cowboys cheerleading squad accused the franchise’s former senior vice president for public relations and communications, Richard Dalrymple, of recording them in a dressing room while they were naked in 2015.He is alleged to have gained access to their changing room using a security key card, before he was caught trying to film them.During the 2015 NFL draft, Dalrymple also was accused by a lifelong Cowboys fan of taking "upskirt" photos of team senior vice president Charlotte Jones Anderson, who is the daughter of team owner Jerry Jones, in the Cowboys' war room.What do you think of this story?

Let us know in the comments section.The 61-year-old denied any wrongdoing and told team officials he entered the locker room to use the toilet and did not know the cheerleaders were in there, and left immediately."People who know me – co-workers, the media and colleagues – know who I am and what I'm about," he said in a statement. "I understand the very serious nature of these claims and do not take them lightly.

The accusations are, however, false.“One was accidental and the other simply did not happen. Everything that was alleged was thoroughly investigated years ago, and I co-operated fully."Following an internal investigation, no concrete evidence was found and Dalrymple was let off with a written warning.Jim Wilkinson, a communications expert employed by the team, said of the incident: “If any wrongdoing had been found, Rich would have been terminated immediately."Everyone involved felt just terrible about this.
