What's up with the controversy around the Washington Redskins name?

Do any native Americans find it offensive or is it only people who stand to benefit financially (lawyers) who are "offended" by the name?

What ever happened with the Washington Redskins naming controversy?

It seemed like a pretty big deal in 2013-2014 and it seemed like public opinion was very in favor of the team changing their name. I haven't heard anything about it lately and a Google search doesn't show many recent results. Did the whole thing just blow over?
