LANDOVER, Md. -- “As a lifelong Washington Football Team fan, and I think that the Washington Football Team fans understand the great tradition and what it’s all about and what it means. We’ll never change the name. It’s that simple. NEVER — you can use caps.” These are the infamous words of Daniel Snyder in 2013.  It’s been 87 years, almost to the day, since George Preston Marshall bestowed the name Washington Football Team” upon his team, but NEVER is today. July 13, 2020 will forever be the day that a new era began in the nation’s Capitol; the day the Washington Football Team nickname became a thing of the past. In an official team announcement on Monday Washington stated: "On July 3rd, we announced the commitment of a thorough review of the team's name. That review has begun in earnest. As part of this process, we want to keep our sponsors, fans and community apprised of our thinking as we go forward. Today we are announcing we will be retiring the Washington Football Team name and logo upon completion of this review. Dan Snyder and Coach [Ron] Rivera are working closely to develop a new name and design approach that will enhance the standing of our proud, tradition rich franchise and inspire our sponsors, fans and community for the next 100 years."
