Cleveland MLB team dropping “Indians” changing their name: report

The Cleveland Indians are reportedly changing their nickname after 105 years.

The New York Times cites three sources that say the team is moving away from a name and logo considered racist for decades.

The Indians have been internally discussing a potential name change for months.

In the summer, Washington’s NFL team dropped “Redskins” as its team name and are currently calling themselves Washington Football Team.

Edmonton’s CFL team discontinued the use of the word “Eskimo” in its name around the same time.
