The **Washington Commanders** are a professional American football team based in the Washington metropolitan area, competing in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the National Football Conference (NFC) East division. Established in 1932 as the Boston Braves, the franchise was renamed the Boston Redskins in 1933 and moved to Washington, D.C., in 1937, adopting the Washington Redskins name. In response to longstanding controversy over the Redskins name and logo, the franchise retired it in 2020, playing two seasons as the Washington Football Team before rebranding as the Commanders in 2022[1][2][3]. The Commanders’ home games are held at FedEx Field in Landover, Maryland, with headquarters and training facilities in Ashburn, Virginia. The team’s colors of burgundy and gold reflect its heritage. Throughout their history, the Commanders have played over 1,300 games, winning more than 600. They have secured two NFL championships (1937, 1942) and three Super Bowl titles (1983, 1988, 1992), marking them as one of the NFL’s historically successful franchises[1][3][5]. The franchise pioneered several NFL firsts, including the league’s first marching band (1937), first radio network (1944), and first fully televised season (1950). Notable figures include legendary quarterback Sammy Baugh, who set multiple passing records and led the team to early championships. The team has made 26 playoff appearances and won 14 division titles, demonstrating sustained competitiveness despite periods of struggle after 1999[1][3][5]. Currently owned by businessman Josh Harris since 2023, who purchased the franchise for $6.05 billion, the Commanders continue to evolve both on and off the field. The ownership group includes notable partners like Magic Johnson. Recent assessments indicate challenges in player facilities and management, though the strength coaching staff is highly regarded. The
