Washington to reveal new name on Feb. 2; won’t be RedWolves

The helmets and uniforms will still feature the franchise’s signature burgundy and gold colors.

The organization dropped its old name in the summer of 2020 after decades of complaints it was racist toward Native Americans and recent pressure from team sponsors.
