The Washington Commanders will sport a new look next week.
Monday Night Football on November 23 at Northwest Stadium in Landover will see the Washington Commanders look back at their past. The Commanders will be donning their “Hail Raiser” uniform. In recent years, in an attempt to move away from their past, then-team president Jason Wright led an effort to stop wearing throwback uniforms and instead adopt a new black alternate uniform.

The Commanders returned to wearing a Super Bowl-era (1982-1991 seasons) uniform for a few games last season, which became permanent this season. Now, next Monday, the Commanders will unveil their new helmet, which nods to the helmet the Washington Redskins wore from the 1965-1969 seasons.
The helmet will feature the return to the spear helmet worn for five seasons in the sixties, the last being the 1969 season. Here is the helmet as it will be worn along with the black alternate uniform.
Perhaps it will be another very exciting game similar to the thrilling contest when these two teams last met on a Monday Night, September 23, 2024. The game was a great passing duel between Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels in Cincinnati. Burrow passed for 324 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. Yet, the Commanders came away with the 38-33 win over the Bengals.
