The Commanders ownership group, led by Josh Harris, has reached an agreement with District of Columbia mayor Muriel Bowser to build a new stadium on the site of RFK Stadium, which has been marked for demolition since 2023. The stadium was last used in 2017, when it was home to MLS' DC United.
The D.C. City Council must now approve the proposal. Since purchasing the franchise, Harris has said he wanted to move the team's stadium from Maryland back to the city limits. Should approvals happen as hoped and on schedule, the $3-billion stadium is projected to open in 2030.
