Which Washington Commanders news stories are hitting the headlines as fans continue to bask in the glory of their exciting new ownership?

There could still be a few hangovers among the Washington Commanders' faithful this morning as celebrations continue surrounding the team's $6.05 billion sale to Josh Harris' ownership group. Something that closes the chapter on Dan Snyder's tenure, which is undeniably the worst in franchise history by a considerable margin.

Of course, the news and rumors keep coming. Among the stories generating buzz recently include Josh Harris' presence, Dan Snyder's legal costs, how important training camp is for Sam Howell, and the name change rumors rear their head once again.

Let's delve into each topic in more detail.

Commanders name change rumors won't go away

After Magic Johnson hinted that the Washington Commanders could be due for another name rebrand under the new ownership regime, speculation was rampant among the fans and media. While this doesn't appear to be the biggest priority right now, it's something that will be discussed in greater detail once Josh Harris and his team find their feet.

Harris stated that they would listen to the fans before deciding on anything final. This is part of his inclusive approach to decision-making and was a foreign concept to Dan Snyder throughout his disastrous spell at the helm.

The opinions are divided among the fanbase regarding this issue. Some don't want any more upheaval while others cannot wait for any name associated with Snyder to be removed from their mouths.

It's a fine line. But don't expect any urgency regarding the matter considering other pressing priorities that need to be taken care of first.
