Giants owner John Mara, a member of the NFL’s Los Angeles committee, thinks the league will have two L.A. teams next season.
Mara said on WFAN 660 that the short-term answer for the league will be to have teams playing in a temporary home, and the long-term answer will be building a new stadium.
“I think LA will certainly happen and I think there’s a good chance there will be two teams playing there next year in a temporary facility,” he said.
Mara said he thinks it’s more viable to have two teams sharing one stadium, as his team and the Jets do in New York, than to move only one team to Los Angeles or to have two teams in separate Southern California stadiums. Mara said stadiums are simply too expensive to justify building one in Los Angeles for only one team.
So of the Rams, Chargers and Raiders, it appears likely that only one will be staying put next year, and two will be pulling up and moving to Los Angeles.
