It looks like the Washington Commanders have zero plans to change their nickname again.
After the Josh Harris ownership group took over the Washington franchise from Dan Snyder in 2023, there was plenty of speculation about whether they might consider changing the team’s name back to the “Redskins” name.
The “Commanders” name was introduced in 2022 after the franchise moved away from the “Redskins” name in 2020 amid growing pressure from the public and the league.
During the interim, the team was simply known as the “Washington Football Team” before it changed its name to the Commanders.
Now that the new name has stuck, many have called for them to go back to the ‘Redskins’ nickname.

Washington Commanders owner Josh Harris made it clear this week that the team will not be changing the name.
“Yes. I think it’s now being embraced by our team, by our culture, by our coaching staff. We’re going with that,” Harris said, according to Pro Football Talk.
“Bring the logo back, at least. The W is atrocious,” one fan stated.
“Crazy how at one time, it was an outrage and criticism for being called the Redskins and how it was disrespectful to Native Americans.,” another fan stated.

“Bad move. Should have gone with ‘Redtails’ as the best compromise. Could have even used ‘Warriors’. At worse they should have changed the name to ‘Commandos,’ a third fan added.
“They’ll always be the Redskins,” one fan boldly said of the franchise to remain as the Washington Commanders.
“Huge, colossal mistake!” another fan commented.
“Big L…always redskins to me,” one final fan stated.

The Washington Commanders Have A Good Thing Going
Washington Commanders owner Josh Harris has confirmed that the NFL team will not be changing back to the Redskins, and that is not a bad thing.
Costly mistakes ended the Commanders’ Super Bowl dreams, but the team is on the right track, as we are only a short time away from the Daniel Snyder era.
Not changing the game means the franchise can continue heading into this new era of Washington football.
