The Oakland Raiders to Las Vegas could be happening soon. According to the mayor of Las Vegas Carolyn Goodman tolESPN that Raiders owner Mark Davis isn’t just using Vegas as leverage to get a better stadium deal in Oakland.
“The Raiders will come if Nevada handles this properly,” Goodman told ESPN Radio’s Capital Games podcast Tuesday.
Raiders owner Mark Davis met with the Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee on April 28 and pledged $500 million toward the construction of a $1.4 billion, 65,000-seat domed stadium.
“Mark Davis has assured us that Las Vegas is not getting played in a Raiders stadium deal,” Goodman said. “I know we will have a team.”
