If I remember correctly it is because of Dallas, and superstition, because for a while if you looked at the Cowboys record of wins to losses you would have seen that they won more in the white jerseys then in the blue, so they made their home jersey white so that they would always be in the white jerseys.
The Redskins (I think it was coach Allen who did this) being who they are saw that the Cowboys wanted to always be in the white jerseys also made the home jerseys white just to get at them.

Yeah

It's because the Skins wear there white jerseys at home and every other team that plays at Washington needs to wear their darfer uniforms.

PS:And I was jw, what jersey should I get, Troy Williamson home or away?
