What is wrong with it being related to the old name?

We were the Redskins for a long, long time and in 2 different cities. We were also briefly the Braves. We have a longer history than most teams. One would think it reasonable that we cannot sever everything related to that history.

We have jettisoned the links to Native Americans. The mob got what they wanted, but that's it.

Using "Red" is just phonetics. Nothing objectionable about that.
