Washington’s NFL franchise is set to return to the nation’s capital with a new stadium set to open by 2030. The project must be approved by D.C. City Council.

D.C. and the Washington Commanders have reached a $3.7 billion deal to transform the crumbling RFK Stadium site on the banks of the Anacostia River into a new home for the team surrounded by retail, housing and park space — a generational development project likely to shape the legacy of Mayor Muriel E.

The Washington Commanders have released a statement about the historic deal that will relocate the team back to the RFK Campus in Washington, D.C.
