The Washington Commanders officially announced a training camp pep rally scheduled for 1 p.m. at FedEx Field on Friday. Friday, of course, will be the first full day for Josh Harris and his group as Washington’s new owners.
The Commanders announced the event on social media, revealing there will be special guests, such as Pro Bowl defensive tackle Jonathan Allen, multiple franchise legends, mascot Major Tuddy, Command Force and more.

What or who did the Commanders mean when they said more? In all caps, nonetheless.
Owners will vote on the sale of the Commanders Thursday. It’s expected that NFL owners will approve Harris and his partners as Washington’s new owners, but it’s still not official. Therefore, the team account couldn’t say Harris and his partners would be in attendance.
However, a report from Darren Haynes of WUSA Channel 9 in Washington indicated that the Harris group would be in attendance. We shall see.
Former Washington players Logan Paulsen and Fred Smoot will host the event. Both work on the media side for the team and are outstanding in their roles. Smoot at a pep rally should be fun.
Fans can attend with an RSVP, which you can find here.
