The 52-year-old took over for Paul Tagliabue in 2006. He had a five-year contract in 2009. Today, it is now extended.
"It is the only place I have ever wanted to work," Goodell said after the league's compensation committee approved the extension.
He has made $10 million for the past five years. No terms of the deal have been disclosed yet of the extension.
"I am grateful for the contributions and counsel of NFL owners in managing our league, the talented staff that supports us, and the players and coaches that perform their magic on the field. It is truly a team effort," Goodell said. "I am eagerly looking ahead to the challenge of building on our momentum and doing all we can to improve our game for the fans and everyone that is part of our league."
Looking forward to see what Goodell does for the next few years.
