Daily Slop - 28 Apr 25 - Mayor Bowser & Josh Harris will reportedly announce agreement to build new stadium at RFK site today

The Washington Commanders are going home. The organization has agreed to a deal with the District of Columbia to build a stadium at the site where they had their greatest success, according to sources familiar with the situation.

Washington struck a deal to play where RFK Stadium — the team’s home from 1961-96 — still stands. An announcement is expected Monday morning.

Terms of the deal have not yet been announced, though multiple outlets reported earlier this month that the cost would exceed $3 billion.

Washington mayor Muriel Bowser’s plan has long included a stadium, housing, parking facility, hotels and retail space on the 174-acre site, and she has indicated she wants to include a recreational facility.
