NFL Commish Roger Goodell Nearing Contract Extension Through March 2027, per Irsay

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is apparently in line to keep his job through the 2026 season.

Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay told reporters Tuesday that the league and commissioner are approaching a deal that will keep Goodell in place through March 2027.

Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank said "there's definitely progress being made," while another owner said "it's a matter of weeks" until the contract extension is finalized.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told reporters there will be an announcement in the near future regarding the deal.

Goodell has been the NFL's commissioner since he took over for Paul Tagliabue in 2006.
