Washington Renegades

Here’s another one that works with the HTTR slogan.

I happen to like the Renegades nickname quite a bit. There’s just a nice ring to it. It seems intimidating enough and a Renegade feels like a real “Wild Card” on the field. That’s just my two cents on the name in general.

I think that there are a lot of options for a logo design with this one. We saw the Dallas Renegades create a cool logo and team concept in the XFL reboot (pictured above), so a similar concept with the Burgundy and Gold could work well. We’ll see if this draws consideration, but it’s a good name even if it’s getting a bit less attention than the likes of the Redtail, Warriors, and Generals.
