Madden 21 Will Not Include The Washington Redskins' Old Name And Logo

Madden 21 will not include the Washington Redskins' name and logo, according to Kotaku. Instead, the game will feature the generically named Washington team until a new team and logo are announced by the NFL.

This change is being made to the game at the last minute, as the Washington-based football team only dropped the Redskins name recently. The team has not announced a new name yet, forcing EA to leave the Madden 21 team nameless.

"We are pleased to see Washington's decision to change their team name and visual identity," an EA spokesperson said. "We are quickly working to update Madden NFL 21 to feature a generic Washington team, while we await final word on the updated team name and logo design."
