NFL’s Commanders Ink $3.8 Billion Stadium Deal for DC Return

After nearly three decades of playing in Maryland, the Washington Commanders are headed back to the District of Columbia to build a new home at the site of RFK Stadium, where the club played until the mid-1990s.

The cost of the new 65,000-seat stadium will be upwards of about $3.8 billion, according to a statement. The Commanders will contribute at least $2.7 billion, which is the single largest private investment in DC’s history. It’s expected to open in 2030.
