“I think the Raiders would maximize Las Vegas,” Davis said, speaking to reporters.

He had been talking about moving the team because it was in limbo. The Raiders spent years trying to get a new stadium in Oakland, but the city said it had no money to help pay for the construction. Davis said there had been no progress in conversations with the city about finding another solution.

The Oakland Athletics, who share O.co Coliseum with the Raiders, have a long-term lease and did not appear to be in a rush to leave after their bid to move to San Jose was blocked.

Davis said that contrary to comments made by the mayor of Oakland, Libby Schaaf, there was not enough space to build a second football-only stadium next to O.co Coliseum.

“There’s nothing we can do,” Davis said of talks with the city. “We are in a holding pattern.”

So the Raiders were looking elsewhere. Davis said he would consider moving the team to Los Angeles to play in a stadium that the Rams are building as part of a $2.6 billion entertainment complex, but the Raiders must wait until the San Diego Chargers decide whether to move there first.

If the Chargers move to Los Angeles, Davis said, he will consider San Diego as a potential destination.
