The NFL Commissioner is expected to continue in his role for multiple years to come with a new deal set to be ratified at an NFL owners meeting next week.
Goodell, who has been the league's top dog since 2006, is 'expected to finalize a multi-year contract extension' in Phoenix next week, with NFL owners content to keep him on according to Adam Schefter.
