NFL News: Reports: Deal struck to return Commanders to D.C.

Washington NFL’s franchise has not played in its namesake city since 1996, but multiple news outlets reported Sunday that plans to return to the site of RFK Stadium could be announced as soon as Monday.

The Commanders and the District of Columbia have come to terms on an agreement, although specifics were not immediately announced. Previous reports floated a price tag of more than $3 billion.

The team is under contract to remain at its current home, Northwest Stadium in Landover, Md., until the 2027 season but can stay longer pending a move. Commanders owner Josh Harris indicated previously that he wants the team in a new home by 2030.

The franchise, then known as the Redskins, played at RFK Stadium from 1961 to 1996. They won three Super Bowls in a 10-year span, ending with a 37-24 victory over the Buffalo Bills in 1992.

NBC4 television in Washington reported earlier this month that the team would pay as much as $2.5 billion, with the District of Columbia contributing $850 million. The D.C. Council would have to approve the use of taxpayer money, and its members have reportedly been at odds over whether to do so.

Demolition of RFK Stadium began in 2022.
