Report: Raiders Reach Agreement to Play at the Oakland Coliseum in 2019

The Oakland Raiders have reached an agreement with the Coliseum Authority to play in Oakland for the 2019 season, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.

Raiders owner Mark Davis had previously backed out of a one-year, $7.5 million lease to play in the Coliseum when the City of Oakland filed an antitrust lawsuit against the Raiders and the NFL. However, the Raiders failed to negotiate a deal for Oracle Park in San Francisco or Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego. After being spurned by any locations, the Raiders will play at the Coliseum for a 25th season.
