Wright is set to initially remain with the Commanders after Harris group takes over, AP source says

Jason Wright is expected to retain his job as president of the Washington Commanders, at least initially, after Josh Harris’ group takes over, a person with knowledge of the situation said. It’s expected that he’ll be an important part of the transition between Dan Snyder and new ownership that also includes Magic Johnson. That would be in line with Harris’ previous experiences assuming control of the NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers and NHL’s New Jersey Devils: not making major changes immediately before taking time to assess the state of the organization. That would give new owners plenty of time to evaluate Wright, coach and head of football operations Ron Rivera and others on the football and business sides.
