The Rams will begin playing in their new Inglewood stadium in 2019. The official construction process begins very soon.
Sam Farmer and Nathan Fenno of the Los Angeles Times report that ground will be broken on the project next week. The excavation process will generate a large, 100-foot hole into which the $2.6-billion venue will be built.
The second season played in the stadium will culminate in the first L.A. Super Bowl since the Rams and Raiders left more than 20 years ago. It likely will become a regular stop for the NFL’s championship game.
The Rams will play at the L.A. Coliseum through 2018, sharing space with USC on a field that already looks very rough given the total number of games played there.
