Report: Rivera, Snyder Working on Washington Name Change for More Than a Month

Washington head coach Ron Rivera and team owner Dan Snyder have been talking about a possible name change for more than a month, Rivera told the Washington Post's Les Carpenter.

Rivera told the Post that he has been working with the owner to brainstorm possible new nicknames for the organization and that he is hopeful that a change could come prior to the beginning of the 2020 NFL season.

“If we get it done in time for the season, it would be awesome,” Rivera told the Post.
