The Commanders will reportedly pay $2.7 billion towards the $4 million project, with D.C. contributing $500 million, EventsDC adding $181 million, and another $175 million coming from "stadium activity.” Officials said that $1.147 billion will come from public funds, which is far less than other NFL stadiums currently under construction.

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 development, anchored by a roofed, 65,000-seat stadium, will be funded primarily by the Commanders, who would put up $2.7 billion, while D.C. taxpayers would pay $500 million.
