CISA and Washington Redskins Team Up to Exercise Emergency Response Plans
“Success on the football field requires not only having a solid game plan, but practicing and adapting that plan as needed to ensure the team is ready for the big game. Having a safe and secure environment for fans at the stadium is no different,” said CISA Assistant Director for Infrastructure Security Brian Harrell. “Today’s exercise was a team effort between CISA, all levels of law enforcement, emergency responders, and the Washington Redskins’ team and stadium personnel. We look forward to building upon these already strong relationships because by working together, we can help ensure the safety of fans and workers attending the game.”
“The safety of our fans, staff and everyone attending events at FedExField is our number one priority. We cannot do this alone and we appreciate our partners in government, law enforcement, private sector security, and throughout the community who work to keep all of our visitors safe while they enjoy their time here with us,” said Chris Bloyer, Washington Redskins Senior Vice President of Operations and Guest Experience. “Fans can come to FedExField with the confidence that we are doing everything we can in concert with our partners to give them a safe and enjoyable game day experience.”
