Pro athletes in major sports leagues enjoy many perks other than their huge salaries, including team planes, state of the art medical facilities and luxurious hotel rooms while on the road.
In NFL Week 6, the Washington Commanders visit the Baltimore Ravens, and given the proximity between Baltimore and the nation’s capital, they will be taking a team buses to M&T Bank Stadium.
Those buses are equipped with suites where players can relax, as shown in a social media post by Washington Post reporter Nicki Jhabvala.

Washington, D.C., and Baltimore are less than 40 miles apart, so it shouldn’t take that long for the Commanders to arrive for the game.
Once they get there, they will have to deal with a Ravens team that started the season 0-2 but is now on a three-game winning streak after an overtime victory against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson has been playing well, and new addition Derrick Henry looks like his vintage self with 572 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns in just five games.
But the Commanders have been one of the NFL’s biggest surprises so far, and they will not be an easy team for the Ravens to get past.
Washington sports a 4-1 record and is on a four-game winning streak, and although rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels has thrown just four touchdown passes, he’s leading the league with a 77.1 percent pass completion rate while adding 300 yards and four touchdowns on the ground.
