Major Tuddy, the official mascot of the Washington Commanders, was not penalized for a blatant late hit out of bounds during a highly-competitive football game at halftime in Arlington on Sunday. He absolutely wrecked an 11-year-old but the officials did not throw a flag!
It was a memorable afternoon for the elementary school students, who held off a group of mascots and left Northwest Stadium (formerly FedEx Field) with a victory.
For those who have no idea what I am talking about, let me clear things up. Local youth football teams are often invited to face various mascots from various United States sports organizations in a game of tackle football on the field of an NFL stadium in between the second and third quarters of an NFL game.
Mascot football is INTENSE! The Colts’ mascot, Blue, stripped naked during an all-out brawl with 4th graders on Sunday Night Football earlier this month. The NFL’s newest mascot laid the wood on Sunday afternoon. Major Tuddy’s origin story is as follows:
Major Tuddy’s love for Washington football began when he was just a piglet after watching the Hogs offensive lines of the 1980s and 1990s. He was so inspired by their toughness, strength and the way they laid it all out on the line for their teammates! The squad-first example they set had such an impact on him. When he got older, he was eager to find a role where he could stand for those ideals set by the Hogs, be around his favorite team and use his passion for service.
The Commanders mascot job couldn’t have been more perfect! Now, whether he’s in the stands, on the field or out in the community, Major Tuddy can be found pumping up the crowd, playing silly pranks, enjoying local eats and always looking out for his Burgundy & Gold family. When he’s not on duty, he loves lifting weights and rolling around in the mud. If you see him, be sure to give him a hoof bump!

He is perfect.
Earlier this week, Major Tuddy received a letter in the mail from the Maplewood 11U youth football team. He accepted their challenge and immediately went to work assembling his team.
