The latest controversy surrounding the Commanders and co-owner Dan Snyder has spilled over to even the franchise’s celebrations, it appears. On Sunday, the team is planning on honoring 10 of its all-time greatest players, but one says he wants nothing to do with it.
Former Washington tight end Chris Cooley is one of the 10 former players being added to the the team’s greatest 90 players list in honor of the franchise’s 90th anniversary, but he says he doesn’t want to go to the ceremony Sunday.
“I’m very appreciative of being voted in, and I’m very appreciative of my time while I was there,” he said on The Kevin Sheehan Show. “At this point, I don’t have a lot of desire to be involved with the Washington Commanders. It’s not the team name that does it.”
