I asked Josh Harris about the name Commanders. His answer on the ongoing dialogue around the name was telling.

As I've stated many times on here: Washington Redtails based around the redtail hawk with our old throwback logo. ⬇️⬇️

Speaker Johnson: Can you answer a few questions for me? Respond below. Thanks!

I have no desire to own anything that says Commanders on it. They should bring back the logo with a different name (Warriors etc.).

So basically he’s saying he’d like to but it’s too soon and we have bigger fish to fry before we go there !! But even when we do, it’ll never be the exact old name. I like it , shows new ownership is looking at everything from all different angles. Fans just gotta be patient

Why would you ask him about the name of the team? It never was (and shouldn't be) a priority for him.

Great question Grant. You prove day in and day out that you hear us fans and know exactly what the fan base wants. #ChangeTheName #HTTR

Thanks

He obviously knows the name is dog shit

Great question, Grant. It's clearly going to happen.

It just hit me. They’re gonna do the new name right before the new stadium opens. That’s your timeline. Stadium opening - 1 year (or less)= new team name.
