Commanders hire John Riggins as broadcaster, Darrell Green in community outreach

The Washington Commanders are strengthening ties with two of their all-time greats.

Commanders President Mark Clouse announced at a training camp event for fans that Hall of Famers John Riggins and Darrell Green are both working with the team in new capacities this season.

Riggins will join the Commanders’ preseason broadcast crew. He will also be involved in special events, the team said, and the Commanders have previously announced that his No. 44 is being retired this season.

Green will work in community outreach for the team, specifically in getting fans and civic leaders on board with the new domed stadium that is planned for the former RFK Stadium site. The team plans to move in for the 2030 season.
