NFL-San Diego reunion looks remote

Good morning.

Will the NFL return to San Diego, the city that was home to the Chargers for 56 years and three of the 50 Super Bowls played so far?

I’m hearing it will be a long time, if ever.

Give it a dozen years, if then, forecast one League source.

The obstacles are numerous beyond the obvious one: how to get an NFL-approved football palace built in San Diego.

League expansion in next several years is unlikely, per the source, removing an option that planted franchises in Cleveland and Houston following the departures of the Browns and the Oilers, respectively, to Baltimore and Nashville.
