Report: 2021 NFL Draft awarded to Cleveland

The league is expected to officially announce the news, and potentially the
hosts of other future drafts, on Wednesday, as owners hold spring meetings in
Florida this week.

Cleveland, Kansas City and Denver were among the finalists for recent drafts
that were awarded to Nashville (2019) and Las Vegas (2020). Multiple outlets
reported Tuesday that Denver is not expected to be awarded a future draft this
week.

"We're confident in our city and our proposal, and feel Cleveland has a great
chance at securing this event," David Gilbert, president of the Greater
Cleveland Sports Commission, told Cleveland.com in a statement earlier
Tuesday.

The draft began moving around the country in 2015, being held in Chicago for
two years before going to Philadelphia (2017), Dallas (2018) and then
Nashville last month. Before that, the draft was held annually in New York
City from 1965-2014.
