2020 NFL Offseason Thread

Amid pressure from investors, FedEx asked the Washington NFL franchise to change its nickname.

"We have communicated to the team in Washington our request that they change the team name," a statement from the company read, per ABC 7 News in Washington, D.C.
FedEx paid $205 million for the naming rights to Washington's stadium in November 1999.

AdWeek's Mary Emily O'Hara reported Wednesday that a group of 87 investment firms had written three letters to Nike, FedEx and PepsiCo asking the companies to sever their business ties with Washington unless the team dropped its current moniker.
 
Was thinking the name wouldn’t make it past 2022. Shit looking expedited.
 
kaep is a dual threat game manager that won when needed

stafford is only useful on your fantasy team or putting asses in stadium seats

even DET open to kaep being a backup

their reps must be lurking this thread


Sheeeeiiittttt, he barely a QB2 (worthy of a roster spot) in Fantasy. He has to many games where his stats are damn near none existent. He'll have a monster game every once in a while, but he's not consistent enough.

He was on waivers a lot the last couple years in leagues I played in.

You got any suggestions for a new name?

I’d prefer to keep it something starting with R for httr purposes. But I really don’t care lol

I heard Dan trademarked Washington Warriors a while back as a contingency idk if that’s true though.

"Lift Ev'ry Voice And Sing," traditionally known as the Black national anthem, is expected to be performed live or played before every Week 1 NFL game, and the league is considering a variety of other measures during the upcoming season to recognize victims of police brutality, a source familiar with the league's discussions told The Undefeated on Thursday.

The song would be performed before "The Star-Spangled Banner," the source said. The NFL's season opener is scheduled for Sept. 10, with the Kansas City Chiefs hosting the Houston Texans.

Having recently displayed increased awareness about the problems of systemic racism, the NFL, in collaboration with the NFL Players Association, is also considering listing the names of victims on uniforms through decals on helmets or patches on jerseys. The NFL also may produce educational programs about victims, among other plans
