NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has received a three-year contract extension through March 2027, it was announced Wednesday.
Goodell, 64, has served as league commissioner since 2006. The economic framework of Goodell's new deal is not known but is expected to be incentive-laden and, considering the league's financial success, the most lucrative deal ever given to any commissioner in any sport.
The announcement was made by the NFL's compensation committee.
This is the fourth extension for Goodell, who took over for Paul Tagliabue on Sept. 1, 2006; the previous extensions came in 2009, 2012 and 2017.
