There are probably concerns about the new ownership’s first item of business now that the sale of the Washington NFL club, now known as the Commanders, from Dan Snyder to a group led by Josh Harris has been officially approved by team owners in a unanimous vote. As the team advances under the new leadership, other changes may also take place besides the ownership shift.

The team’s management, coaching staff, and organizational structure may all undergo changes once the new owners assume control. In order to improve the team’s performance on the field, they could also review the present roster of the squad and plans for player swaps and additions.
Additionally, given that the team’s previous moniker was dropped in 2020 owing to its divisiveness, the new ownership may concentrate on rebranding measures. A major priority might be the process of choosing a new team name, logo, and colors.

The Washington Commanders team is apparently planning a complete redesign, which might involve yet another name change, according to ESPN’s Don Van Natta Jr. Van Natta revealed on Thursday’s episode of the “Rich Eisen Show” that the team’s name change is an option under consideration.
The team’s previous name, “Redskins,” was changed to “Washington Redskins” in the middle of 2020 due to its historical use as a racial insult and its controversy. The Washington Football Team’s name was then changed to “Washington Football Team” in the meantime, and now that Josh Harris is the team’s new owner, the possibility of a thorough rebranding effort is being investigated.

The sale to Josh Harris’s organization received unanimous approval shortly after it was announced, but the NFL swiftly fined former owner Dan Snyder a whopping $60 million. A 17-month inquiry into charges of sexual harassment brought against Snyder by a former team employee resulted in this fine. The probe also turned up hidden money that the corporation should have shared with the league.
