The Washington Commanders have hired Adam Peters as their new general manager. Peters, who was previously an assistant general manager for the San Francisco 49ers, has been instrumental in building a successful roster in San Francisco. He has helped the team achieve four winning seasons and multiple playoff selections, including three NFC West titles. Peters expressed his gratitude for the opportunity and looks forward to connecting with the Commanders' fan base. He brings 21 years of experience in the NFL, including time with the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos. Peters has played a significant role in drafting key players for the 49ers, such as George Kittle and Fred Warner.

The Commanders' ownership group is committed to building a winning culture and organization under Peters' leadership.
