The Commanders are going home. The organization agreed to a deal with the District of Columbia on Sunday to build a stadium at the site where the team had its greatest success, John Keim of ESPN reports. This according to sources familiar with the situation.
Washington struck a deal to play where RFK Stadium -- the team's home from 1961 to 1996 -- still stands. An announcement is expected Monday morning.
Terms of the deal have not been announced, though multiple outlets reported earlier this month that the cost would exceed $3 billion.
Commanders owner Josh Harris has said he would like to open a new stadium in 2030. Washington has a contract with Maryland to play at Northwest Stadium until early in the 2027 season, but can continue playing there until a new stadium is built.
