Roger Goodell's contract extension is expected to be completed in December at the owners' meetings.

Momentum to delay the deal has dissipated "meaningfully," in the estimation of one league source. Jerry Jones has been attempting to block Goodell's extension.

Goodell's total potential compensation could average about $40 million for each year from 2019 to 2023, making it a five-year extension worth up to about $200 million.

The Goodell-Jones controversy has taken attention off the national anthem controversy.
