Super Bowl champion Joe Theismann explains why Commanders are poised to bounce back from disappointing season

Super Bowl champion Joe Theismann, who spent his entire career with the then-Washington Redskins, is excited for the Commanders this season despite an underwhelming season last year.

Last season, the Commanders went 5-12 after making the NFC Championship in 2024. Theismann, 76, said the team ran out of gas last season as they dealt with injuries.

"It was a lot of injuries in key places last year. The defense, I think, was very susceptible in certain areas," Theismann told Fox News Digital in a recent interview.
