President Donald Trump threatens to shut down Commanders' NFL stadium deal unless team reverts to old name
"Donald Trump wants the Washington Commanders to switch back to their old name, and if they're not willing to do it, the president has threatened to derail the team's plans to build a new stadium in Washington.
From 1937 to 2019, the NFL franchise in Washington was known as the "Redskins," and if the Commanders don't switch back to that name, Trump said he "won't make a deal" for them to build a new stadium.
"I may put a restriction on them that if they don't change the name back to the original 'Washington Redskins,' and get rid of the ridiculous moniker, 'Washington Commanders.'" Trump wrote on Truth Social. "I won't make a deal for them to build a Stadium in Washington. The Team would be much more valuable, and the Deal would be more exciting for everyone."
Earlier this year, Commanders owner Josh Harris, who bought the team from Dan Snyder for $6.05 billion in July 2023, had said he wouldn't be changing the name back and that it was here to stay. "
