Washington Commanders Team History

The Washington Commanders organization played its first game in 1932 as the Boston Braves but that moniker didn’t last long. The team changed its name to the Redskins just one year later and moved from Boston to the Washington DC area in 1937. And they are known as the Washington Commanders as a hopefully last name change since 2022.

During their many decades in the NFL, the Commanders have won three Super Bowls, five conference championships, 14 division titles, and made 24 playoff appearances. The Commanders golden age was during the 1980s. The team won two Super Bowls in that decade and made the playoffs five times.

Right now the Commanders’ biggest rivals include the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, and Philadelphia Eagles. The most notable names in franchise history include Joe Theismann, Sammy Baugh, John Riggins, and Sean Taylor.
