New Washington Commanders helmet is about something much bigger than just an 'alternate' look according to report

   

In case you missed it, the Washington Commanders teased an announcement* for an alternate helmet that will be unveiled July 9. 

According to SportsLogos.netthe Commanders will be the first of six NFL teams announcing alternate helmets this offseason. But for Washington, the new look is more than just an "alternate" helmet. 

*Note: You know we're in the NFL's dead period when you're getting announcements about announcements, huh? 

According to The Team 980 AM's Kevin Sheehan, the new helmet will be a part of an entirely new uniform that will be released in 2026. 

"I have it on good authority that they are going to go back to something resembling the old uniforms sans the more recent Redskins logo," Sheehan said last week on the air. "It would be a rollout with [alternative uniform] opportunities in 2025 [. . .] In this alt opportunities this year I would imagine that at least in a couple of these we're gonna have a uniform that looks like the old uniform." 

Obviously, going back to the old uniform would bring up questions about the logo being used for the helmet or elsewhere in the uniform. Though Sheehan admitted on air he doesn't know what that would be, he guessed it would be the W and not the old, controversial Redskins logo. 

While these would be alternates in 2025, Sheehan expects the uniform to change for the 2026 NFL season and beyond. 

"And then eventually, the plan would be to go back to something resembling the old uniform sans the last logo in the 2026 season," Sheehan said, which he's mentioned since October of last year. 

Regardless of the logo, it sure sounds like Washington fans will get back the look they loved for so many years. Old fashioned championship burgundy and gold is coming back for the Commanders.
