Do the Washington Commanders have any official partnerships with sportsbooks?
The Washington Commanders made history in 2023 by becoming the first NFL team with a sportsbook located directly in their stadium. Opened for the first game of the 2023 Commanders’ season, Fanatics Sportsbook Ohio formed a partnership with the team to allow for betting before, during and after Commanders games. While FedEx field has faced its fair share of backlash over the years, the Commanders presence there now has fans flocking to the stadium to get their bets in.
The deal is in fact the second major partnership with a sportsbook, as the Washington Commanders signed a deal with FanDuel Sportsbook Ohio in 2021. With a headquarters in Virginia, the deal gave commanders fans in the commonwealth the ability to bet on the team (and others) from anywhere within Virginia. This was a critical component to the deal, because at the time, DC and Maryland had not yet fully legalized online sports betting.
Where do the Washington Commanders play their home games?
The Washington Commanders play their home games at FedEx Field, located five miles east of DC in Landover, MD. Originally called Jack Kent Cooke Stadium, the stadium opened its doors in 1997, as the team left RFK Stadium in DC at the direction of then-owner Dan Snyder.
From 2004 to 2010, FedEx Field seated more fans than any in the NFL, with a capacity of just over 91,000. Due to some renovations, the capacity was reduced to 58,000 in 2021, where it remains to this day. Throughout the year, FedEx Field also plays host to non-NFLevents including soccer, concerts, and more.
