NFL commissioner Roger Goodell received a three-year contract extension through March 2027, the league announced Wednesday.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed by the NFL.

Goodell, 64, reportedly made $63.9 million per year in 2020 and 2021. His new deal is expected to be incentive-laden and likely the most lucrative given to any commissioner based on the league’s financial success with respect to its recent media rights deals.

“I’m obviously honored to do this job,” Goodell told reporters at the Fall League Meeting in New York. “It’s not going to change how I’m approaching my day-to-day job, and it hasn’t to date.”

So what does Goodell want to accomplish over the span of his contract?

“From my standpoint, there’s still a number of things we want to do as a league,” Goodell said. “It’s not my agenda. As a matter of fact, when we talked about the long-range plan we talked about this is your long-range plan, this is our long-range plan. There are lot of challenges out there, but there are also a lot of opportunities for us, and we’re focused on how we make the NFL better every day, how we become a global sport.

“I think some very exciting things are happening in that context and I feel really good about where the National Football League is today, but we don’t sit around and tell ourselves that. We really shouldn’t, and we really focus on what are the things we need to do.”

The Compensation Committee updated the league’s owners on Wednesday that an agreement had been reached for Goodell, who now has received four extensions since taking over for Paul Tagliabue in September 2006. The previous extensions were 2009, 2012 and 2017.

Goodell started his NFL career as an administrative intern in 1982 under then-commissioner Pete Rozelle.
