FedEx Field ranked as NFL’s worst stadium

FedEx Field, home to the Washington Commanders, has been ranked as the worst stadium in the NFL, according to USA Today.

Bet for the Win ranked all 30 stadiums and determined that the Maryland venue, which will host the team’s first regular 2022 season game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sept. 11, placed last.



FedEx Field has had a number of problems including transportation, high prices and sewage water falling on stands.

“Look, there’s no way around this. FedEx Field is awful. It’s literally falling apart. Remember when a railing gave way back in January and sent a handful of Philly fans tumbling at the feet of Jalen Hurts? Or when that pipe burst in the fall of 2021 and sent questionable water all over fans? Yeah,” said Caroline Darney, managing editor at Bet for the Win.

“Not only will the stadium actively work against you, you need to drive or train an annoying distance and either walk a further annoying distance, or sit in hours of traffic to experience a team that hasn’t made it out of the Wild Card round since 2005. At least tickets are $70 each!”

The Commanders have been playing at FedEx Field since 1997 and won only one home playoff game in the process.

7 votes needed: Here’s where each DC Council member stands on RFK stadium deal

The nearly $4 billion deal on the table to redevelop the RFK Stadium site and bring the Washington Commanders back to the District needs the blessing of at least seven members of the D.C. Council, but a current tally appears to show more negotiations may be needed. When it comes to the current agreement announced Monday by the city and team owner Josh Harris, only four members appear poised to put their support behind the deal.
