The Washington Football Team appears to have played their hand too early.
There has been non-stop speculation as to what the Washington Football Team’s name will be once the re-brand is complete. It appears the team may have teased a new nickname during a recent post on Twitter.
On Monday, Washington posted an “interesting submission” from a fan named Sarah.
The suggestion that the fan presented was “the Washington Redwolves”.
“…Once I saw it, I fell in love,” the fan wrote. “I really love the idea of the Washington Redwolves. I have been a fan of this team since I was born… and my dad has been a season ticket holder for a while. Can’t wait for what’s next!”
The RedWolves nickname immediately became one of the most popular names to surface online from fans after the news of the Redskins name being retired.
