2017-01-19 1

The Oakland Raiders officially filed to relocate to Las Vegas, according to Clark County Commission Chairman Steve Sisolak. The Raiders were required to wait until the end of the season before applying for relocation. Per NFL rules, the move must be approved by three-quarters of the NFL's 32 owners. The vote is likely to come during a vote at the NFL’s annual meeting in March. The Raiders have a stadium plan in the works for Las Vegas, but reports suggest it might not be ready until the 2020 season.
