Where did Commanders' uniforms rank in a recent fan study?
While winning 12 games and reaching the NFC championship game appeased much of the fan base last season and even made new fans, the team's uniforms remain a problem. A recent fan study confirmed this disappointment.
Zach Cohen of FanDuel recently revealed the non-scientific poll results ranking every NFL team's uniforms. Cohen named the five teams at the bottom of the list, beginning with No. 32 — the Commanders.
Cohen has long expressed his distaste for Washington's current uniforms, which debuted in 2022. While the Commanders' name has grown on Cohen, the uniforms haven't. Cohen stated that these uniforms were proof that former owner Daniel Snyder "did nothing good."
Washington's majority owner, Josh Harris, and two of his top minority partners, Mark Ein and Mitchell Rales, grew up in the Washington area as fans of the Redskins. These owners have nothing but fond memories of the franchise's glory years and those uniforms. While the name isn't changing again, at least anytime soon, it does appear more likely that the Commanders will go with a different look.
Notably, Jayden Daniels' No. 5 jersey was one of the top-selling NFL jerseys in 2024. You can almost guarantee that Daniels will break more jersey-buying records once his No. 5 is available in a pre-2022 jersey.
While Cohen's poll is not an official one, the results speak for themselves. Washington has consistently ranked at the bottom of these lists since the introduction of these uniforms.

D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser is concerned Commanders' stadium deal will collapse
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser wants to bring the Commanders back to the site of RFK Stadium. She's worried that's not going to happen. Appearing Tuesday on The Team 980, Bowser was asked by Kevin Sheehan to put a number on her level of concern regarding the deal, with 0 being 'not concerned' and 5 being 'very concerned.' She went with a 4. The problem is that the D.C. Council isn't moving quickly enough for her or the Commanders' liking. The goal is to get approval in place so that the project can get started. The deal between the Commanders and Bowser calls for D.C. Council to approve the stadium by July 15. The team recently said that even a small delay could keep the new facility from opening in 2030. D.C. Council is clearly operating on its own timeline. Public hearings have been set for July 29 and 30, two weeks after the July 15 deadline comes and goes.

UPenn to ban transgender athletes, feds say, ending civil rights case focused on swimmer Lia Thomas
WASHINGTON (AP) — The University of Pennsylvania has agreed to ban transgender women from its women's sports teams to resolve a federal civil rights case that found the school violated the rights of female athletes. The U.S. Education Department announced the voluntary agreement Tuesday. The case focused on Lia Thomas, the transgender swimmer who last competed for the Ivy League school in Philadelphia in 2022, when she became the first openly transgender athlete to win a Division I title. It's part of the Trump administration's broader attempt to remove transgender athletes from girls' and women's sports. Under the agreement, Penn agreed to restore all individual Division I swimming records and titles to female athletes who lost out to Thomas, the Education Department said. Penn also agreed to send a personalized apology letter to each of those swimmers. It wasn't immediately clear whether Thomas would be stripped of her awards and honors at Penn. The university must also announce that it 'will not allow males to compete in female athletic programs' and it must adopt 'biology-based' definitions of male and female, the department said. Education Secretary Linda McMahon called it a victory for women and girls. 'The Department commends UPenn for rectifying its past harms against women and girls, and we will continue to fight relentlessly to restore Title IX's proper application and enforce it to the fullest extent of the law,' McMahon said in a statement. The Education Department opened its investigation in February and concluded in April that Penn had violated Title IX, a 1972 law forbidding sex discrimination in education. Such findings have almost always been resolved through voluntary agreements. If Penn had fought the finding, the department could have moved to refer the case to the Justice Department or pursued a separate process to cut the school's federal funding. In February, the Education Department asked the NCAA and the National Federation of State High School Associations, or NFSHSA, to restore titles, awards and records it says have been 'misappropriated by biological males competing in female categories.' The most obvious target at the college level was in women's swimming, where Thomas won the national title in the 500-yard freestyle in 2022. The NCAA has updated its record books when recruiting and other violations have stripped titles from certain schools, but the organization, like the NFSHSA, has not responded to the federal government's request. Determining which events had a transgender athlete participating years later would be challenging. ___ The Associated Press' education coverage receives financial support from multiple private foundations.
