Commanders Rumors: 'Pretty Good Chance' Team Will Change Name After Dan Snyder Sale

NFL owners unanimously approved a group led by Josh Harris to purchase the Washington Commanders from Dan Snyder, paving the way for the move to become official and close shortly.

We'll soon find out what orders of business that Harris undertakes as he assumes control of the franchise, but ESPN's Don Van Natta Jr. said on the Rich Eisen Show that he believes a name change could be in order (1:25 mark).

"I think so, yes," Van Natta said when Eisen asked if he thought the team could change its name and start completely fresh to separate itself from the Snyder era.
