The Washington Redskins said it will conduct a "thorough review" of the team's name.

The announcement, which was first reported Friday by ESPN's Adam Schefter, comes amid renewed calls for the team to change its name, which critics view as being racist and insensitive to Native Americans.

“This process allows the team to take into account not only the proud tradition and history of the franchise but also input from our alumni, the organization, sponsors, the National Football League, and the local community it is proud to represent on and off the field," Dan Snyder, the owner of the team, said in a statement.

“This issue is of personal importance to me, and I look forward to working closely with Dan Snyder to make sure we continue the mission of honoring and supporting Native Americans and our military,” said Ron Rivera, the team’s new head coach.

The Redskins, who have used the moniker dating back to the 1930s, have long faced calls to change the team's name. The pressure has increased amid a national reckoning on race after the death in police custody of George Floyd.

So Natives never existed and shouldn't be immortalized as a team. Got it.

Agreed, we should erase them completely and let us not ever mention it again.
