Raiders Rumors: Week 3 Preseason Game vs. Packers to Be Played in Winnipeg

The Oakland Raiders and Green Bay Packers are reportedly set to play a Week 3 preseason game at IG Field in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, in August.

According to Jeff Hamilton of the Winnipeg Free Press, the Winnipeg Football Club is in the "final stages" of completing plans for the game to be played.

Winnipeg emerged as the likely location for the game after plans to hold the exhibition at Mosaic Stadium in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, fell through since the CFL's Saskatchewan Roughriders were scheduled to play at the venue the following day.
