At this moment, no one knows where the Raiders will be playing in 2019. San Diego has been widely suggested as a temporary landing spot until everything is set in Las Vegas, but as of Tuesday, the Raiders have yet to engage in talks with city authorities.
“Our office has not been in communication with the Raiders,” Craig Gustafson, spokesman for the San Diego mayor told Michael Gehlken of the Review-Journal (on Twitter).
Last month, we heard that there is still a possibility of the Raiders playing in Oakland this year. Of course, with lawsuits and ugliness involved, nothing can be said for certain.
Mark Davis previously expressed little interest in sharing Levi’s Stadium with the 49ers, but the league could push that pairing if it winds up being the most logical solution. Given Santa Clara, California’s relative proximity to the Raiders’ fan base and the quality of the stadium, it’s not hard to imagine Roger Goodell advocating for that scenario.
What city would want to have the hobo of an organization only for a year?
London Raiders
That’d be a great idea if not for the insane amount of airline miles
Eight different ones.
Like a hobo, the Raiders should move from town to town, like a farewell tour.
Play a game in LA, play a game in SD, St Louis, San Antonio, London, Mexico, Oakland and then Vegas.

The Raiders are an atrocious organization. At least the Lions know where they are going to play next year.
Welcome to the dumpster fire traveling road show, I’m your host Mark Davis
Heard Tucson
They’re gonna play at AT&T. Probably the only upside for SF this year
That’s Oracle Park to you buddy
The citizens of San Diego would rather be entertained by the monkey exhibit at their world class zoo than waste time watching the Raiders.
Agreed. Anyone who knows the SD football fan base knows that having the Raiders at Qualcomm is like having the Yankees play a season at Fenway. I don’t see it happening.
Which is exactly why your team bailed on you
