He will immediately assume the title of senior adviser while a search for a new team president begins.
Jason Wright, who became the face of the Washington Commanders’ attempt to transform their workplace culture after being hired four years ago as the first Black team president in NFL history, will move out of that role immediately and will depart the organization by the end of the upcoming season, Wright and Commanders owner Josh Harris said.
Wright will assume the title of senior adviser while maintaining his responsibilities as the team’s de facto president, focusing primarily on its search for a new stadium site and stadium naming rights partner.
