NBC4 is hosting a pep rally Friday morning for the Washington Commanders in the run-up to the NFC Championship against the Eagles in Philadelphia.

NBC4 journalist Molette Green will host the pep rally at Cooper Mill (10 Duke Street), a former Civil War mess hall that recently opened as a restaurant.

Green will appear live on News4 Today from 5 to 9 a.m.

“Commanders fans, we are just one win away from the Super Bowl,” NBC4 said. “We’ve been waiting for this for more than 30 years, which is why we’re teaming up with TODAY this Friday for an epic playoff pep rally.”

Attendees are asked to wear Commanders gear for the early morning party.
