Joe Gibbs ready to 'get behind' new WFT nickname, but Charles Mann is 'not happy' with options

No name is more synonymous with the Washington Football Team's glory days — and, yes there were glory days — than Joe Gibbs.

The Hall of Fame coach spoke with 106.7 The Fan on Wednesday to reminiscence about the good times. He also discussed the future — specifically the franchise's new nickname that will be revealed next Wednesday.

Gibbs coached the franchise for 16 seasons over two stints that included 10 playoff berths, four NFC championships and three Super Bowl wins. He did so with the team's old logo and nickname front and center as an integral part of the franchise's identity.
