Commanders Player Admits There’s A ‘Dark Cloud’ Over Organization & Team Needs A ‘Fresh Start’

It must really suck being a Washington Commanders player right now.

The team is in the midst of turmoil surrounding their owner, Dan Snyder, who seems to find himself under a different investigation every week. That leaves coaches and players answering questions about scandals they are not a part of.

One particular player is speaking up and giving some insight on what’s it’s like.

Second-year corner Benjamin St-Juste admitted his tenure with the organization hasn’t exactly been what he would have wanted. He suggested the team needs a “fresh start.”

Benjamin St-Juste tells a French-language paper there's been a "dark cloud" hanging over the Commanders since he arrived and the organization could really use a "fresh start." https://t.co/ZnO6dtqeZY

Good on St-Juste for speaking out. Can’t imagine the players were happy about Snyder using Robinson in that statement last night. If his own players start speaking out against him, Snyder is in real trouble… https://t.co/xzLB6CHIys

St-Juste isn’t wrong. Despite the team winning 3 of their last 4 games and finding themselves in the hunt for a playoff spot, the fanbase is constantly screaming chants directed at their owner and that’s with the stadium being nearly 40 to 50 percent full every week.
