Honoring the Past. Leading the Present. Inspiring the Future.

WHO WE ARE: The Washington Legends department was created to strengthen the relationship between former Washington players and the Commanders organization in order to celebrate our rich legacy and honor the lasting contributions of past players. A Washington Legend is defined as a player with at least one (1) credited season on the active roster (53-man) for the Washington Redskins / Football Team / Commanders.

WHAT WE DO: Our goal as a department is to reconnect Washington Legends to the Commanders organization and support Legends' post-career development. We strive to support our organizational efforts of building a sustainable championship culture through legacy and mentorship.

Updated Alumni Homecoming Process

In response to the overwhelming attendance and enthusiasm last year, we're making a change designed to give each of you more quality time, attention, and connection when you return to cheer on the Burgundy & Gold.

Instead of hosting one large gathering, we're spreading our Alumni Homecoming across the entire 2025 home season. You'll be invited to attend select home games based on the decade you played, ensuring you're celebrated alongside your teammates and peers from your era in a more intimate, meaningful setting.

This format allows us to:

  • Deliver a more personalized experience with our Alumni Suite
  • Create stronger bonds among Legends from your playing years
  • Reduce crowding while enhancing comfort and access

We understand this is a shift from what many of you are used to, but we believe it will make your return even more impactful and enjoyable. Please review your assigned game(s) in the RSVP carousel below and respond no later than August 29th. We're honored to welcome you back and can't wait to celebrate your legacy throughout the season.
