Washington Redskins Owner Daniel Snyder told NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on Tuesday that he has no plans of changing the team’s name when the two met about the Redskins name.
According to a Washington Post report:
According to one person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because neither the league nor the team publicly confirmed the meeting nor discussed what happened in it, Snyder reiterated to Goodell that he has no plans to change the Redskins’ name.
A second person with knowledge of the meeting said the focus was not on changing the team’s name but declined to elaborate. The meeting was designed, another person familiar with the situation had said Monday, for the league to gather information on the team’s plans for dealing with the issues involved, including assessing and addressing opposition to the name.
