The New England Patriots owner told USA TODAY Sports on Friday that he would support the efforts by Oakland Raiders owner Mark Davis to relocate his franchise to the so-called Sin City if a stadium deal can’t be struck to keep the team in the Bay Area.

"I think it would be good for the NFL,” Kraft told USA TODAY Sports. “I know Mark Davis has tried so hard in Oakland. If they won’t do it … I want to support him.”

That’s a huge statement from one of the NFL’s most influential owners, wo was making his first public comments on the subject.


Multiple owners think this is happening, some are saying 50-75% chance Raiders to Vegas, another said they'd be surprised if it doesn't happen at this point, and now Kraft says this and Jerry Jones already supports... Oh boy.

I hate teams moving, but Oakland isn't even making an effort to keep them.

It would be sweet to have a team here in Vegas. I don't like the Raiders but I'd still go to some games. Especially if the Saints visit.

When did Kraft become the spokesperson for NFL owners?
