According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the team formerly known as the Washington Redskins will be known as the Washington Football Team going forward, until a new name is chosen.
This announcement does not mean that there won’t be a new name chosen in the future, but it does mean that the team will be officially doing away with the ‘Redskins’ name going forward, though they’ve been using it still since the announcement of a future name change.
While fans still vote for their favorite team names on social media, we will see when an official change is made in the near or distant future. For now, it seems that Redskins is officially a thing of the past.
