Raiders talked to MLB's Giants about playing in San Francisco in 2019
The Oakland Raiders are apparently exploring creative locations for their 2019 home, as The Associated Press reports the team has talked to MLB's San Francisco Giants about playing at AT&T Park next year.
The Raiders are scheduled to move to Las Vegas for the 2020 season. The team made an offer to renew their lease for one more year at the Oakland Alameda Coliseum before the city filed a federal lawsuit against the team and the NFL over the planned relocation. The $7.5-million offer has since been pulled from the table.
The Giants would be interested in helping out their fellow Bay Area team.
"The Giants want to do what's best for Bay Area fans and would be open to the concept just as we hosted Cal Football in 2011 when Memorial Stadium in Berkeley was being renovated," the team said in its statement, according to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.
The Raiders could be playing their final game in Oakland on Monday Night Football when they host the AFC West-rival Denver Broncos.
