Dwayne Haskins wrote on Twitter that his vote would be for Red Tails, which has often been gone over as a potential brand-new group name.

After hearing lots of feedback about that, Haskins added a follow up noting that the choice to carry on from the franchises long-lasting name is above his pay grade.

Dan Snyder has all however verified that his group is going to change its name, so the only question is what the groups next name will be. Red Tails appears like a popular option.

Red Tails has support for a couple of reasons. The Tuskegee Airmen, African-American pilots who battled in World War II, described themselves as the Red Tails, and the team has suggested it wants to honor the military with its next name. The red-tailed hawk, a bird often seen in Washington, D.C., might work as the groups mascot. The name would likewise enable the team to keep and just somewhat change its battle tune, with fans singing “Hail to the Red Tails.”
