Lincoln Financial Field has been home to the Eagles for 23 years.And for Philadelphia natives, there truly is no place like home.The Eagles have played at Lincoln Financial Field since 2003GettyThousands of passionate fans pack into the stadium to watch their beloved Birds on game day, and they create one of the most electric — and intense — atmospheres in the NFL.In recent years, two Super Bowl banners have been hoisted to the rafters (2017 and 2024), and the Linc has become one of the toughest places for rival teams to pick up a win.But the Eagles might not stick around forever.Philadelphia Eagles exploring stadium futureAccording to The Athletic, on July 24 last year, the team sent an email to season ticket holders asking for feedback.Such messages are not uncommon, but this one went beyond the norm, and urged fans to help ‘shape the future’ of their stadium experience.It explained how the Eagles are evaluating changes for their home field, both in terms of ‘renovation options’ and even the ‘possibility of a brand new stadium’ in the region.The Athletic’s Zach Berman believes the email was a ‘clear signal’ amid murmurs of stadium uncertainty that will only grow louder in years to come.The Eagles’ current lease for Lincoln Financial Field runs through 2032, meaning their immediate future is of no concern.But the long-term plan could see the team build a new stadium with a roof — which would allow Philly to host a Super Bowl for the first time ever.Why would a new stadium appeal to the Eagles?As of now, the franchise remains in an ‘exploratory phase’ for a new facility, according to Berman.Eagles fans have a reputation for creating electric atmospheres at the LincGettyTeam owner Lurie believes Philly deserves to host a future Super BowlGettyBut owner Jeffrey Lurie will soon hold his annual ‘State of the Eagles’ address and could expect to field questions about his future plans during that.At the NFL’s annual league meetings, team officials will also hear plenty about the new stadium projects for the Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs, Tennessee Titans and Washington Commanders, as well as much discussed plans for the Chicago Bears and Cleveland Browns.“I think we’ve got a wonderful stadium. We’ll have to make some decisions down the road,” Lurie, who has a net worth of $7.6 billion, said in February 2025 — before the Eagles won Super Bowl LIX.“No stadium is optimal forever. We’ll have decisions over renovating it or creating a new stadium. I think we’ve been neutral with all the evolution of the South Philly complex, with all those rumored city arenas and all that.“So we’ve been neutral. We’re not involved in that at all. We want what’s best for the Eagles and our fans, and someday, if we can deliver a Super Bowl to Philadelphia, then that would be incredible.”To deliver the NFL’s marquee event, though, might require a roof — especially in a ‘cold weather’ city like Philly.The Super Bowl is often hosted indoors, and the NFL is trending towards domesAFPIn recent years, the league has trended towards hosting the Super Bowl indoors, with 2026 at Levi’s Stadium being the only exception in the last five years.The next two games are scheduled for SoFi Stadium (2027) and Mercedes-Benz Stadium (2028), both of which have roofs.Eagles fans against the idea of building a domed stadiumThe Bears, Browns, Chiefs, Titans and Commanders all plan on building indoor facilities, meaning any new Eagles stadium that doesn’t have a roof would instantly be at a disadvantage.Owner Lurie knows that, too.NFL Stadium StatusChicago Bears – $5bn efforts to keep Bears in Chicago fall through as team announce plans to build new stadium across stateCM Punk accuses Bears owners of ‘straight greed’ and calls for team to be sold over Indiana relocationKansas City Chiefs – $4bn Arrowhead move hits ‘high stakes’ snag with radical soccer-style stadium proposedKansas City announce major update on new $3 billion stadium designJacksonville Jaguars – Jags set for 150-mile relocation to 90-year-old arena as $1.4bn stadium project beginsJaguars have Super Bowl ambition to replace cruise ships with Shad Khan’s state-of-art $1.4bn stadium makeoverCleveland Browns – Pat McAfee raves at Browns’ NFL-first design masterpiece in new $2.4bn stadiumCavaliers and Guardians stadium plans in trouble as Browns $2.4bn relocation causes Cleveland chaosTennessee Titans – New $2.1bn NFL stadium splits opinion ahead of Titans moving out of 27-year home$25m piece falls into place for Titans’ new $2.2bn stadium ahead of grand unveiling“I love outdoor football. I love the cold games. I like the hot games, like the snow games,” he said last year.“On the other hand, Philadelphia deserves to host the Super Bowl, NCAA Final Four, lots of great events. It’s an incredible sports city.“Does it deserve it? Yes. So we have to balance all those things.”Philly fans, though, have made their feelings about a dome very clear.Eagles fans don’t want a domed stadium as the elements give them an advantageGetty“No one is asking for that,” one said of suggestion over a roofed stadium.“It’s probably nostalgia and the fact that it’s my stadium, but I don’t really feel like the Linc is ‘old’ or needs to replaced. Football is meant to be played outdoors, in the elements,” another wrote.“I can see the Eagles and Lurie want to keep up with the rest of the league, but the weather gives them an advantage with everyone else building domed stadiums,” a third claimed.“Same s*** driving the Bears to go with a dome. Hate it. Football is built to be played in the elements,” a fourth said.“BOOOOOOOOOOO. Domes are weak and boring. I’m tired of these teams Super Bowl-maxing and ruining football experiences. Soon every team will play in the same boring a** dome,” a fifth concluded.Should a dome is to come through renovations to the Linc, or through building a brand-new stadium in the region, taking ‘football weather’ away from Philly would be a hugely controversial move.The Eagles have not announced any plans to do so, and for now, a timeline remains unclear. But the noise around a new home will likely grow as the months roll on.Stay up to date with the latest from the NFL across all platforms – follow our dedicated talkSPORT USA Facebook page and subscribe to our talkSPORT USA YouTube channel for all the news, exclusives, interviews and more.
