The Washington Commanders’ home field now will be known as Northwest Stadium after the team announced an agreement Tuesday with Northwest Federal Credit Union.

The team announced an eight-year deal to rename the place that was known as FedEx Field from 1999 until several months ago. FedEx ended its naming-rights agreement in February, two years before it was set to expire, making it Commanders Field on a temporary basis.
