Commanders’ Owner Earns High Praise for Team’s Remarkable Turnaround
After a transformative year both on and off the field, Washington Commanders owner Josh Harris is receiving widespread recognition for his role in the team’s revival.
When the Commanders were sold in 2023, fans had high hopes for a franchise that had been plagued by years of mediocrity and off-field scandals under former owner Dan Snyder. Harris, who became the managing partner of the team, took on the challenge of turning the organization around and re-establishing its prominence. The results have been impressive: in 2024, the Commanders made a remarkable turnaround, improving from a 4-13 record to a 12-5 finish, one of the best turnarounds in recent NFL history.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport recently commended Harris for his leadership in reviving both the culture and structure of the franchise. “When Josh Harris bought the Commanders, he wanted to rebuild the organization—and he’s done that,” Rapoport remarked.
While much of the attention has focused on the team’s performance on the field, Rapoport also highlighted a key event that signals the beginning of a new era for the Commanders: the decision to hold the 2027 NFL Draft in Washington, D.C. This move is a clear indication of the league’s confidence in the team’s revitalized image under Harris’ ownership.
With a fresh sense of direction, the Commanders are entering a new chapter, with Harris’ ownership overseeing a promising future. Under the leadership of QB Jayden Daniels and head coach Dan Quinn, the team is poised for continued success, and the outlook for Washington is brighter than ever.
