They play in Maryland, which has a 5.5% state income tax.

This is only true for one main reason: they are not based in Washington State. Having grown up in the Washington, DC Metropolitan area, I can assure the writer of this article that the Washington they refer to is Washington, DC…unless there are two NFL Redskins teams…
