New Commanders uniforms coming on April 15

The Washington Commanders will unveil their new uniforms for the 2026 season on April 15, the team announced Thursday with a video teaser on social media.

Reports from the nation's capital have suggested that the team is planning to permanently adopt the "Super Bowl Era" throwback uniforms introduced last season.

The Commanders wore those uniforms, featuring white jerseys and burgundy helmets and pants -- as their alternate look for three games in 2025.

The Commanders, who formally changed the team name and logo in 2022 after two seasons as the Washington Football Team, were known controversially as the Washington Redskins from 1937 to 2019. The franchise won Super Bowls during the 1982, 1987 and 1991 seasons.

"These uniforms recognize the most successful era of our franchise -- one that reflects a culture of excellence and encompasses many historical moments and special memories amongst our fanbase," team president Mark Clouse said when the Super Bowl Era uniforms were unveiled. "Our coaches, players and the entire organization could not be more excited to celebrate our team's legacy while creating new memories in these uniforms this season."

Since that 1991 Super Bowl championship, Washington has qualified for the postseason just eight times.
