NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was in attendance for the team's stadium announcement and at one point during the event, he was asked if the new stadium would "increase" the chances of D.C. getting a Super Bowl. "I didn't come here to announce that, but I would say dramatically," the commissioner said.

The Washington Commanders and DC Mayor Muriel E. Bowser announced Monday the team's plans to build a new stadium at the site of the old RFK Stadium.

The Commanders’ new home at the RFK Stadium site would include a roof, which is vital for a potential Super Bowl bid.
