President Joe Biden recently signed a bill that transfers the land encompassing the old RFK Stadium from federal government ownership to city control, marking a significant step towards potentially bringing the NFL's Washington Commanders back to the nation's capital.
This move grants the District of Columbia control of the land for the next 99 years, enabling the demolition of the deteriorating old stadium and the redevelopment of the site for various purposes. Among the possibilities being considered is the construction of a football stadium and additional entertainment options at the franchise's former home.
