Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie has interesting answer about a potential dome stadium in Philadelphia

Jeffrey Lurie has a serious influx of cash after selling 8% of the Eagles to two families who agreed to acquire small stakes in the franchise in deals that raised the team’s value to just north of $8.1 billion.

With that money, Lurie could renovate Lincoln Financial Field or build a new domed stadium, allowing Philadelphia to host future Super Bowls.

During Super Bowl opening night, Lurie said this when asked about the Eagles potentially having a dome stadium.

Lurie has made clear his desire to host large events such as Superbowls, March Madness, Wrestlemania, concerts in the winter months, and more. A new location with a dome in the Xfinity Live area could make his dream come true.

According to Crossing Broad, the Eagles have eight years remaining on their current lease at Lincoln Financial Field.

That should be more than enough time for a resolution or a new home.
