The fact that the majority of NFL owners consider Roger Goodell to be the ideal candidate for the position of NFL commissioner makes it highly likely that he will continue in his current role. Under Goodell's leadership, the league has maintained its strong performance, and there is a strong possibility that this trend will continue.

The sale of the Washington Commanders franchise is currently the most significant obstacle that Commissioner Goodell is facing. After being pressured, Dan Snyder is now considering selling the team, although the transaction has been moving at a snail's pace thus far.

According to recent sources, NBA legend Magic Johnson has also joined the bidding for the Commanders as part of a group that is being led by Josh Harris, who is also the co-owner of both the Philadelphia 76ers and the New Jersey Devils.

It will be interesting to observe whether or not Dan Snyder is able to sell the franchise for the price he has in mind, as he is hoping to receive a healthy return on his initial investment in the franchise.
