President Donald Trump is threatening to hold up a new stadium deal for Washington's NFL team if it does not restore its old name of the Redskins, which is considered offensive to Native Americans.

The Washington Commanders headed into the 2024 offseason intending to reshape the tight end position. Much like the rest of the roster, Washington's tight end position required significant changes.

President Donald Trump has called for the Washington Commanders and Cleveland Guardians to change their names back to the Redskins and Indians.

“The Commanders have the oldest roster in the NFL heading into 2025. Key starters like Bobby Wagner, Zach Ertz, Deatrich Wise, and Laremy Tunsil are all over 30. Kliff Kingsbury’s offense got figured out quickly after a hot start with the Cardinals, too. Will the same thing happen in Washington?”

Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Jordan Mailata and Washington Commanders linebacker Frankie Luvu claimed the next two spots in the ranking of the NFL's 100 best players heading into the 2025 season.
