DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - With the Los Angeles Chargers struggling to get their own fans in a stadium built for a soccer team (capacity of 27,000), a report came out Monday night that London was an option to be the future home of the Chargers.
During the Cowboys win over the New York Giants, Vincent Bonsignore of The Athletic reported that the NFL and Chargers ownership are willing to consider the U.K. as a viable new home.
London has done everything possible to show the #NFL it’s prepared to be the permanent home for a team. The league, and the Los Angeles #Chargers, are willing to consider the U.K. as a viable new home. My exclusive for @TheAthletic https://t.co/rHiF2zavIb

November 5, 2019 Dallas owner Jerry Jones was asked about the report during his bi-weekly appearance Tuesday morning on Shan and RJ on 105.3 The Fan.
"No," Jones said when asked if London was a viable option for the Chargers. "The Chargers are committed to their future in Los Angeles. They're going to be in a fabulous stadium. ... They're going to be a big part of the Los Angeles sports scene."
