We’re still a few days away from the unveiling of the WFT name, but now we may just know what it is.

The Washington Football team is slated to reveal its new name on Wednesday. Leaks have been running rampant on the web.

One franchise legend spoke about a potential name on Monday as if it was a done deal. Joe Theismann discussed the topic in an interview with CBS Sports Radio.

“I think the Commanders is a name that is gonna be hopefully one people talk about moving forward,” Theismann said. “There were so many different options. Once again, it’s trademark infringement. It’s getting approval from different people. If you choose a name, is there a group out there that isn’t gonna like it? There’s so many things you have to consider.”

Theismann did tell the Washington Times via text that he didn’t know what the name is.

“Like you I’ll find out on Wednesday,” Theismann wrote, per the Times.

 

Theismann also declined to reveal what the finalists are.

Theismann spent his entire 12-season career as Washington’s quarterback, so maybe he has some inside info. Time will tell.
