Josh Harris, the controlling owner of the Washington Commanders, confirmed on Monday that the team will retain its current name. Harris, who acquired the team in 2023 from former owner Dan Snyder, emphasized the name's significance, especially following the team's success under rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who led them to the NFC championship game. Harris, a fan of Washington football, said: "I think it's now being embraced by our team, by our culture, by our coaching staff, so, we're going with that." Harris had previously assured that the franchise would not revert to its former name, which Snyder had retired in 2020 due to its offensiveness to Native Americans.
