The Washington Commanders have made their stance clear on a possible name change, saying the current name is now a core part of the team’s identity. This comes after President Donald Trump recently shared his thoughts about the franchise’s name. The team’s owner, Josh Harris, has already said there are no plans to change the name, keeping the NFL team in the nation’s capital on a steady path.
According to Yahoo Sports, Trump shared his views on the Washington NFL team’s branding while talking to reporters. He spoke first from a helipad in Morristown, New Jersey, and later to a reporter near Air Force One. The president said he preferred the team’s old name and admitted his comments might stir controversy.
