I think it’s too generic to the trademarkable IIRC

• Red Hogs (doubtful)

• Commanders (maybe but sounds bit generic like a computer operation)
• Red Wolves (probably the most catchy)

I would whittle it down to 3 contenders
Red wolves
Presidents
Armada

What do I know though ?

Whoops and meant to say Washington Football Team as well - so four contenders

Maybe the two most likely are
Washington Football Team and Red Wolves

Then again, how would I know?

I like Washington Football Team. I hope they keep it.

Red Wolves is the only decent option.

Surprised Red Tails isn’t one of the final contenders

Ew

Presidents

Red wolves

In July last year, former Washington Redskins announced it would change its name and logos ahead of the 2020 NFL season. They would be temporarily known as the Washington Football Team until a new name was chosen. Over a year later, no decision is public about a permanent name.

Washington Football Team name options
Sporting News reported back in July that WFT narrowed its list of potential nicknames to eight possibilities. Tanya Snyder, co-CEO of the team, stated they are:
• Red Hogs
• Defenders
• Armada
• Presidents
• Brigade
• Commanders
• Red Wolves
• Washington Football Team

So apparently, Washington will reveal new name and logo in early 2022

Any bets on which name they will choose? Which one do you think sounds the best?
