Washington, D.C.'s NFL franchise is set to return to the nation's capital as part of an agreement between the organization and the District of Columbia government to build a new stadium.

Mayor Muriel Bowser says the District of Columbia and the Commanders reached an agreement to construct a new home for the football team in the city.

The Washington Commanders have released a statement about the historic deal that will relocate the team back to the RFK Campus in Washington, D.C.
