With the news of the Rams relocating to Inglewood, California beginning to surface late Tuesday evening, the Chargers were awarded the option to join their counterparts per a vote by the league’s owners.
But the Carson project, which was earlier recommended by the NFL’s six-member relocation committee, failed to sway owners during an early round of voting.
HollywoodLifers, would you still root for the Chargers if they move to L.A.? The Chargers have a one-year option to join the Rams at their Inglewood site and if they do not, that option would be given next to the Raiders.

A worker rides past the entrance of The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2016. The Chargers have played in San Diego for 55 seasons after one year in Los Angeles when the former AFL franchise was born.

If this is true, and Brown sincerely voted against moving the Rams to LA because it would ultimately mean he has to pay his players more, Cincinnati’s playoff drought (they haven’t won a playoff game since 1991!) isn’t ending any time soon.
The proposal to build a new stadium in Mission Valley remains on the table, but Faulconer said he is willing to entertain other locations, such as downtown, if they’re “viable and legal”.
After the news conference, Fabiani said he could only reiterate what Spanos said following Tuesday’s developments.

The excitement of the Rams’ 2016 return only increases when fans talk about it, especially for Visalia resident Hector Olvera. Last night, the National Football League approved the relocation of the Rams back to LA.
