ASHBURN, Va. -- Jason Wright, the first Black team president in NFL history, will no longer serve in that role and will leave the Washington Commanders after the season, a team spokesperson confirmed. He'll serve as a senior adviser until his departure.

Wright will continue to focus on securing naming rights for the stadium as well as helping in finding a new stadium site. But there will be an immediate search for a new president, led by majority owner Josh Harris and Tad Brown, the CEO of Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment.
