Michael Rubin expects 'fast results' from Josh Harris as new Commanders owner : 'This has been his dream'

Meek Mill, Lil’ Baby, Eli Manning, Russell Wilson and more were on hand at Frederick Douglass Academy in Harlem Tuesday for Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin’s inaugural Merch Madness Fan Gear Giveaway. 

Washington Commanders prospective owner Josh Harris is confident that the franchise he is hoping to obtain from Dan Snyder will prosper under his watch. 

His former partner with the Philadelphia 76ers, Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, believes that notion. 

Speaking at his inaugural Merch Madness: Fan Gear Giveaway in Harlem on Tuesday – the first of three stops he made while giving away licensed merchandise worth roughly $20 million to more than 100,000 underserved kids and their families – Rubin told Fox News Digital that he expects a quick turnaround with Harris leading the Commanders.

"I expect fast progress from Josh," Rubin said. "Josh is a beast. He’s nonstop, he works 24/7. This has been his dream. This is the city he grew up in. I think, to be honest, there’s a lot of low-hanging fruit."

"I expect fast results from Josh, and I think the community is going to rally around him. I couldn’t be more excited for all the Commanders fans and what Josh can do for the team."

Harris doesn’t have control over the Commanders just yet as the NFL will hold a special meeting on July 20 where league owners are expected to vote on Harris’s pending deal with the Snyders, per the Washington Post.
