Although I see this reverting back to the Washington Football Team I guess.

Also, this is the type of shit the new ownership probably doesn't want to go through in rebranding.
Sounds like normal legal back and forth that should be resolved easily enough

What are the Commanders' next steps?

As for the "Commanders' Classic" registration, the team can:

➡️ file a response, arguing that a NFL team is unlikely to be confused with a single college game.

➡️ attempt to buy out the rights or sign a co-existence agreement.

I believe the Washington Commanders will be able to work through these issues.

It is likely the USPTO will drop the refusal due to the "Commander's Classic" trademark if a good legal argument is submitted.
