I find it hard to believe NFL survives “wokeness”. Does anyone care what they call themselves once they are no longer the Redskins?

Does it matter? They no longer have any skin in the game...

“I find it hard to believe NFL survives “wokeness”.”

The NFL and AT&T are at the end of a 9 year deal signed in 2014. The current TV deal runs until 2022. That TV deal buffers them from most blowback for their actions, for the time being. It, along with sales of branded clothing, are two of the many reasons the NFL can do fine with fewer butts in seats at the games.

Rumors have it that AT&T is balking at the NFL’s renewal offer. Ratings have mostly returned to pre-kneeling levels but the ratings downturn seems to have made an impression.
Whatever the new deal is will tell us a bit about the long-term viability of the NFL.
