The Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians have both announced they are considering a possible name change. The Atlanta Braves have, so far, indicated they don’t plan to follow suit, but the team is apparently considering a different kind of change.
The Braves are currently holding discussions about their use of the “Tomahawk Chop,” according to The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal.
The “Chop,” which has been played repeatedly at Braves home games since the 1990s, has received criticism in the past as insensitive to native groups.
