The Facts: The Rams site in Inglewood, California, has been approved by owners by vote of 30-2.
Diehards Line:The Chargers have the option to join Rams in Los Angeles, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports. The Raiders have bowed out and will remain in Oakland. The Chargers wanted to play at a stadium to be built in Carso, California, but the Rams want to proceed in Inglewood. It was believed the Chargers would consider mobilizing nine votes to block Inglewood, and then to stay in San Diego for at least a year. While that would have forced the Rams back to St. Louis, it also would have opened the door for San Diego to put together a viable proposal that could have eventually prompted the owners to not authorize a move by the Chargers in the future. The league’s apparent desire to get the L.A. situation resolved apparently will trump any last-minute gamesmanship by the Chargers aimed at blowing up the Inglewood deal and putting the Chargers and Rams together in Carson. Stay tuned. The full details of the Rams' impending move will play out in coming days.
