The ESPN personality came up with an interesting proposal that would have the Commanders share a new stadium with another local NFL franchise.
Washington Commanders training camp officially kicked off Tuesday in Ashburn, but the buzz around the team extends far beyond the practice field.

The study claims to have found several notable risks from uncertain maintenance to parking and the lack of a comprehensive safety plan.
Since the Commanders own the land around FedEx Field, the team could theoretically build a new stadium at the site. Staying at FedEx Field, however, doesn’t appear to be an option.
