Redskins fans’ prayers were answered last Sunday. Not only did Washington come up with its first victory of the season against the New York Giants, but it ditched the gold pants, as well. The players were just as shocked to arrive to MetLife Stadium with burgundy pants hanging in their lockers to pair up with their white road jerseys.
The change reminded players and fans of franchise’s success during the 1980s and early 1990s wearing the burgundy pants.
Redskins players, and fans, hope the burgundy pants are here to stay
