Oakland Raiders will play on Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum stadium in 2019 as well. According to the Review Journal, The Coliseum Authority unanimously voted to extend Raiders’ lease for one more year, fiving the team an opportunity to play a farewell season in Oakland before relocating to Las Vegas in 2020.

According to reports, the Raiders will be required to pay $7.5 million in rent for using the stadium and headquarters in Alameda. The agreement also has a $10.5 million option for 2020, in case that the team’s new stadium in Las Vegas doesn’t get finished on time.

It appeared that the Raiders will have to find a new home for 2019 season after Oakland sued the team and NFL for Las Vegas move. This prompted the team’s owner, Mark Davis, to end the negotiations about extending the lease for using Oakland Coliseum in 2019 and start exploring new options. Several other venues were considered, including playing at San Francisco Giants’ Oracle Arena.

Davis has been looking to relocate the Raiders since 2011 and ultimately decided to move the team to Las Vegas. NFL team owners approved the move in March 2017 with the plan that Raiders start playing their home games on Las Vegas Stadium in 2020. The stadium, worth $1.8 billion, is still under construction and is expected to be finished until August 2020.

The Oakland Raiders will have a glorious home for 2020 and beyond with their Las Vegas’ stadium being an astonishing piece of architecture. But the issue is that there’s still a full season to be played until then and Raiders have nowhere to go. That is unless San Francisco Giants give them a helping hand.

According to Associated Press, Raiders are currently negotiating with the Giants about the possibility of playing home games at their Oracle Park in 2019. The sources say that nothing has been finalized yet, but that confirmation should be expected next week.

When asked about this, the team’s owner Mark Davis said that the team isn’t ready to make the announcement about it just yet.

“When we’re ready to make the announcement, we will.” – Davis told ESPN.

Oakland Raiders are currently without a stadium since the city of Oakland decided to sue the team and National Football League due to the planned move to Las Vegas. After the suit was filed in December, Davis ended the negotiations with the city about extending their lease for Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum for 2019.

Despite this, Raiders are considering re-opening the negotiations or sharing Levi’s Stadium with San Francisco 49ers since NFL will start making the schedule for 2019 soon and need a decision by then.
