The Washington Black Lives... Just to confuse them.

I would go with the Washington No-Nothings. They could trace their name back to the Know-Nothing party, which came from the Native American Party. That way their brand as the Redskins is still acknowledged and their name would represent what we've all come to expect from the city.

The Washington Politics, and fans can call them "the Ticks" for short.

I saw some Eagles fans suggest "Foreskins."

Maybe Rumple Foreskins.

It's official, they're dropping the name; no replacement chosen.

I suggest the Washington MAGA, just to watch Lefty heads explode.
