Here is the actual context of that quote:

"I think the biggest thing they did that was important was that they went with something that they believe was authentic to Cleveland," Wright said. "They have the same mix of reactions from fans that I expect we will have when we roll out our new name, logo, etc. But the way that they did it did have some meaningful tie -- the way we talk about having a meaningful tie to the area and to the history of this team, something that feels something traditional, grit and all that stuff."
He doesn't say authentic to DC, but authentic to the area. He then defines what that means: something that feels traditional, grit and all that stuff (i assume that stuff is referring to things like nobility, resilience and the other words in the video).

Not gonna lie, that looks like a blow to the Wolves. BUT there is also a lot of wiggle room within the answer. All they have to say to be true to his statement is "We feel the spirit of the wolfpack captures the grit and perseverance of this area". We will see, but if the stadium is roaring with howls all season, they may expand on what feeling traditional, and having grit is all about.

Washington Lobbyists

"We feel the spirit of the lobbyist captures the grit and determination of this area."

See? It fits perfectly.
