The Washington Redskins’ season has ended, but the fate of the football team’s nickname could change greatly during the offseason depending on how the Supreme Court rules in Lee v. Tam, a separate trademark case whose arguments begin Wednesday.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office denied the Asian-American rock band “The Slants” a trademark on its name, having decided it was offensive to Asian-Americans. The band has fought the denial all the way to the Supreme Court, arguing that a federal law barring trademarks on racial slurs violates the First Amendment.
