10 NFL teams that could be getting new stadiums or major renovations
When it comes to stadiums, NFL owners are rarely satisfied.
After the Raiders and Rams/Chargers opened their new stadiums in 2020, they raised the bar for the rest of the league. The facilities are architecturally unique, modern and serve as year-round destinations. The Falcons' Mercedes-Benz Stadium and Vikings' U.S. Bank Stadium would also fit into that category (See: NFL stadiums rankings).
And in the four years since the opening of SoFi Stadium and Allegiant Stadium, we've seen other teams try to upgrade, overhaul or build all-new stadiums with varying success.
Let's look at the 10 teams that are hoping to either build new stadiums or hold major renovations in the near future.
Tennessee Titans
Status: Under construction
The Titans broke ground on a $2.1 billion stadium this year that is expected to be open in 2027. The stadium -- which will take in $1.2 billion of public funds -- is designed as an indoor venue with a fixed roof in order to host major events like the Super Bowl and Final Four.

Buffalo Bills
Status: Under construction
Knowing that Buffalo was unlikely going to be a destination for Final Fours and Super Bowls, Bills ownership opted against the indoor stadium trend. The $1.7 billion stadium will be an open-air venue that is set to open in 2026.

Kansas City Chiefs
Status: Maybe moving to Kansas?
The Chiefs had teamed up with the Royals in hopes of securing public money to upgrade Arrowhead Stadium. Those upgrades were essentially new suites and parking with a $300 million price tag. After that haphazard effort was rejected by Missouri voters, the Kansas legislature went hard at work to bring the Chiefs across the Missouri state line and into Kansas City, KANSAS. We've even seen a conceptual design for a would-be indoor stadium in Kansas. No plans are set as of now, but that could change quickly.

Jacksonville Jaguars
Status: Major renovation plans set
The city of Jacksonville approved a $1.4 billion plan to renovate EverBank Stadium in a project dubbed, "Stadium of the Future." The deal will keep the Jaguars -- long considered a London relocation candidate -- in Jacksonville for at least 30 years. If all goes to plan, construction will start in early 2026 with a target of the 2028 season for its opening.
The #Jaguars’ plans for their $1.4 billion dollar stadium of the future looks insane.

Chicago Bears
Status: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The Bears were going to move to Arlington Heights until they weren't. Then, they wanted to build a stadium just south of the current Soldier Field site. But lawmakers have no plans to approve any taxpayer-funded stadium for the Bears. So, uh, maybe they'll try for Arlington Heights again? Who knows? They certainly don't. But enjoy a dramatic renderings video of a stadium that won't get built.

Cleveland Browns
Status: Uncertain, but likely heading towards major renovation
The Browns did release renderings for a new domed stadium (see below) last month that would have been located about 15 miles from the current Huntington Bank Field site. But the city and county appear more open to a proposed $1.2 billion renovation of the current stadium.

Cincinnati Bengals
Status: Renovation
The team announced in May plans to make $120 million in improvements to Paycor Stadium with construction running into 2026 in phases.
Baltimore Ravens
Status: Renovation
The Ravens announced plans last year to make $430 million of state funds in upgrades to M&T Bank Stadium. With that deal, the Ravens will remain at the current stadium until at least 2037.

Carolina Panthers
Status: Renovation approved
Back in June, Charlotte city council approved plans to allocate $650 million of city funds to an $800 million renovation of Bank of America Stadium. Panthers owner David Tepper would pay the remaining $150 million under the agreement, and the project is aiming for a 2029 completion.

The vote ties the Panthers to the city for the next 20 years.

Washington Commanders
Status: lol
The Commanders are stuck at the worst stadium in football until 2027, but owner Josh Harris doesn't really have any concrete plans set for a new facility. It could be at the RFK Stadium site or elsewhere in D.C. or the DMV. Harris reportedly hopes to have a new stadium ready by 2030. We just don't know where it will be or what it will look like.
