Will The NFL Change Its Name? – Latest Odds & News

By · Updated 4 hours ago

Donald Trump made international headlines in early December, as he revealed that the U.S. should rename the NFL to ensure that soccer can be called ‘Football’, just as it is in every other country in the world.

As expected, the quotes from the U.S. President weren’t greeted with positivity from American Football fans, and there was a belief that his comments were made in order to keep his close relationship with FIFA intact.

But, will the NFL change its name, and what are the latest odds if the organization chooses to do so? Find the latest odds available at BetOnline here.

Will The NFL Change Its Name?

As expected, Trump’s comments at the FIFA World Cup 2026 Draw in December gained traction, and it only added further weight to the Soccer vs. Football argument in North America. However, it’s likely that the President’s comments were tongue in cheek, as he remarked that calling the NFL ‘football’ didn’t ‘make sense when you think about it’.

Trump was likely playing to a pro-Soccer audience in Washington, and his comments came after he picked up the FIFA Peace Prize. The President has been working hard with FIFA throughout his term, and this summer’s World Cup is likely to be the biggest global sporting event on the planet in 2026.

A name change in the NFL is extremely unlikely, given the organization’s sporting heritage in the United States.

Meanwhile, European Football has been known as soccer since the late 1900s, with the United States Soccer Football Association being renamed in 1945. NFL’s name has been in place for longer, as the competition was named in 1922.
