Jason Wright out as president / to leave Commanders by end of 2024 season.


Recommended Posts

The Packers position would have been a promotion in a sense, because he would actually be running the team as it’s de-facto owner, and responsible for both the business and hiring the front office lead executive.  

I don’t get the hate that the fans have for Wright here.  The NFL basically forced Wright onto Snyder, and he had to carry his water and barring the Sean Taylor memorial debacles- which are probably the fault of Danny Boy to begin with- he did a great job leading the business side of the club.  He also was up front with fans off-record that he barely even met Snyder, so that should tell you something too.  

Hope Wright lands on his feet in a good role, especially after enduring that job for a little bit.

This guy was a Goodell hire for sure. An air freshner to cover the stink of Snyder but he was one of those fetid pineapple scented bathroom sprays that's as bad as the original odor. Just write him a check and wish him well. Send him on his way the sooner the better .

Good. He needed to go. He botched quite a bit of stuff as team president. The Sean Taylor memorial was a total disaster. The name roll out. Just a mess. 

Don't forget his various inappropriate tweets.  Or him attacking a journalist because hard questions were asked of Carson Wentz.  

No one should have survived that name roll out.  A low end wedding planner could have done a better job of the "event" and likely every fan could have gotten the superbowl years correct.  I do think his second biggest assignment was the stadium and he didn't achieve that either. 

Surely, he took a job in a very difficult environment, but he also made too many missteps he had personal control over.  He also took a position that is usually a behind the scenes job and he chose to thrust himself in front of the public as much as possible and thus has made himself a target for criticism from people like myself.

Of course, maybe we should thank him for doing such a bad job because otherwise we would be stuck with commanders :)
