SEE DETAILS:: https://sportsrock247.com/2024/04/08/breaking-news-su…r-decide-to-sell/ ‎Josh Harris and his ownership group took over the Washington Commanders prior to the 2023 NFL season, effectively ending the Daniel Snyder era. Harris and company were determined to turn the team around, and the franchise began to move in a new direction.

Along with Harris and his group doing everything they can to put a winning football team on the field, the Commanders franchise is working on improving their stadium, which will take about $86.5 million to accomplish.

Apparently, the need for $85.6 million in funding to make stadium improvements has to be put to a vote among the NFL owners, which will be voted on in Orlando during a three-day meeting, according to Mark Maske of The Washington Post.

Usually, these kinds of things get approved because they improve fans’ experiences and allow stadiums to raise prices, which benefits everyone involved, even though fans might not be crazy about it if the improvements aren’t up to their standards.

Along with the Commanders working on improving the experience at Commanders Field, Washington has made some drastic moves during this NFL offseason, with the team parting ways with head coach Ron Rivera and bringing in Dan Quinn to be his successor.

On top of the coaching change, which was much needed for Washington, the Commanders have brought in some notable players this offseason, like Austin Ekeler, Zach Ertz, Bobby Wagner, and Marcus Mariota, to help right the ship moving forward.

With the second overall selection in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, the team is also anticipated to select one of the top quarterback prospects.
