Roger Goodell seems to keep his distance on Raiders’ plans

HOUSTON — NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell offered little clarity Wednesday to the Raiders’ once-promising, now seemingly floundering plan to relocate to Las Vegas.

The Raiders’ plans were tossed into disarray this week when billionaire casino mogul Sheldon Adelson withdrew his support as a big investor in a stadium project.

With Adelson no longer involved and investment bank Goldman-Sachs following his lead and pulling out of a potential deal to help construct a $1.9 billion stadium, the next steps for the Raiders — and the NFL — are uncertain.

“We haven’t made a determination about Las Vegas as an NFL market,” Goodell said during his annual Super Bowl news conference.
