Where will the Raiders play in 2019?

Attorney reportedly contacts Raiders about temporary move to Arizona Stadium in Tucson
Could AZ Stadium be the Raiders' home for a year?

This will hurt us in free agency to sign top tier talent.

San Francisco Giants' Oracle Park it is.

www.rotoworld.com

NBC Bay Area's Raj Mathai reports the Raiders will play the 2019 season in the San Francisco Giants' Oracle Park.
Oracle is the new corporate sponsor for a stadium that had been named AT&T Park up until a few weeks ago. Per Mathai, the deal will be officially announced this week. It is not exactly an ideal solution. The Raiders are bouncing from one baseball stadium to another, only this one is not a true dual-use park. Oracle hosts a yearly bowl game and that's it. The Raiders' Vegas digs will supposedly be ready in 2020. We'll see.

I'll wait for the official announcement.

I **** hate them playing in a baseball field/stadium.

Sucks for kicking FG/extra points.

The Raiders will stay in Oakland for the 2019 NFL season.

Las Vegas' stadium isn't ready, so the Raiders had been in negotations to play their final season at The Coliseum. They progressed well, and a formal agreement was reached on Monday. Perhaps most interestingly, the agreement includes a team option for 2020 if the Vegas stadium isn't ready for 2020, either. The Athletic's Vic Tafur suggested the Oakland deal increases the chances free agent Marshawn Lynch will play one more season with the Raiders.
