NBC didn't immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Griffin was a Pro Bowler and the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2012. He guided the team to the playoffs. Daniels is seemingly on the same trajectory. He's gotten the Commanders back to the postseason and has been the best quarterback to come out of the 2024 class so far.

The Redskins name has been a source of controversy for years. Former team owner Daniel Snyder ditched it in 2020. The franchise was known as the Washington Football Team and then the Commanders.

Recently, the new Commanders ownership led by Josh Harris has worked with federal lawmakers to revive the old logo in some capacity.
