As Jon Bernthal's acting career continues to soar, his dedication to the Washington Commanders remains a constant in his life. Born in Washington, D.C., and raised in suburban Maryland, Bernthal has been a die-hard fan of the team since childhood. His passion was vividly displayed last fall while filming a movie in Morocco. When Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels threw a miraculous 56-yard Hail Mary pass to receiver Noah Brown, Bernthal couldn't contain his excitement.

"I went running through the streets of Morocco grabbing people," Bernthal recounted after watching the Commanders' practice. This moment encapsulated his deep connection to the team, a bond that has endured through decades of ups and downs.

Bernthal's fandom is not just a nostalgic nod to the past; it's a living, breathing part of his present. Whether he's filming in Morocco, Ireland, or Greece, Bernthal ensures he never misses a Commanders game. "No matter what time of day, I'm finding a way to watch those games," he said. "It feels so good to be a Commanders fan. It feels like it was back in the day: '83, '84, '87, '92."

Those were the years Washington made it to the Super Bowl, securing three championships. Bernthal sees a resurgence of that winning spirit in the current team, especially under the leadership of Coach Dan Quinn. After observing a practice session, Bernthal expressed his optimism. "You can feel this team is a bunch of go-getters. Coach Quinn is a go-getter; we're in real good shape moving forward," he said.

Bernthal's connection to the team was further cemented when Daniels interacted with his son during practice. "It was incredible to see Jayden take the time to talk to my son and even play catch with him," Bernthal shared. "The truth is the truth. You can't mess with this team."

As Bernthal continues to balance his Hollywood career with his Commanders fandom, he remains a vocal and passionate supporter. His story is a testament to the enduring bond between a team and its fans, a relationship that transcends time and geography.
