In 2020 the former Washington Redskins made a huge announcement when it was released, they would be changing its historic name.

Of course, they used the placeholder Washington Football team name for a brief time until finally deciding on the Washington Commanders in 2022.

The name and logo change originally occurred when many activists felt it was offensive to people of Native American origin.

However, that all might be changing once again as there have reportedly been discussions for the Redskins name to make a comeback.

“This is honoring a Blackfeet chief who was born in Montana. He is highly esteemed. The Blackfeet tribe of Montana, their current chairman and tribal council, signed a letter in strong support to bring the logo back. It honors Indian Country,” said United States Senator Steve Daines.

 

“We have good discussions with the NFL and with the Commanders. There’s good faith in negotiations going forward that’s going to allow this logo to be used again. Perhaps revenues going to a foundation that could help Native Americans in sports and so forth. We’re making good progress and, based on the good faith negotiations, I made a decision to support this bill yesterday in the committee,” he continued.

Many Are In Favor Of Bringing Back The Washington Redskins

When the name change originally happened, it was super controversial, as the original Redskins logo was of a Blackfeet chief named White Calf and was first seen as a homage to him.

Many were upset after the change but are happy to hear that there’s a chance it will return.

If this did end up happening, there is expected to be a lot of controversy and pushback from those who first opposed the Redskins name.
