Hall of Famer Sammy Baugh threw 187 touchdowns for Washington between 1937 and 1952.

The Washington Commanders are a professional American football franchise based in the Washington metropolitan area. They are members of the East division in the National Football Conference (NFC) of the National Football League (NFL). The Commanders were founded in 1932 as the Boston Braves, named after the local baseball franchise. [1] The franchise changed its name the following year to the Redskins and moved to Washington, D.C. in 1937. [1] In 2020, the team retired the Redskins name after longstanding controversies surrounding it and briefly played as the Washington Football Team before becoming the Commanders in 2022. [1]

The Commanders have had 70 quarterbacks start at least one game in the history of their franchise. Recently, the team has been notable for its instability at the quarterback position. [2] [3] Since 2000, the Commanders have 27 different starting quarterbacks [2] [3] and only two have started entire consecutive seasons: Jason Campbell ( 20082009) and Kirk Cousins ( 20152017). [2]

Only two starting quarterbacks for Washington have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame: Sammy Baugh ( 19371952) and Sonny Jurgensen ( 19641974). [4]
