The 2024 NFL Draft in Washington D.C. is poised to set attendance records, potentially exceeding a million attendees, reflecting its growing popularity as a major entertainment event. The economic impact on Detroit from the previous draft was estimated at $213.6 million. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell emphasized the draft's potential to showcase the nation's capital's progress. Additionally, the Washington Commanders recently drafted cornerback Trey Amos, who is expected to bolster their secondary, bringing agility and physicality to the team, allowing for strategic player positioning.
If the crowd indeed tops seven figures, it will set a record for the event. Two years ago, Detroit drew more than 750,000 people for the draft, Goodell said.
The draft has become one of the great entertainment sports events, Goodell said. We can have a tremendous impact on this community, and it will not just be an event.
Amos adds a different dimension to the Commanders' secondary. He's tall, agile, physical, and everything in between.
That worked in the Commanders' favor. Amos has the tools needed to be a major asset on the boundary opposite Marshon Lattimore.
