Step by step, the Raiders are preparing for a potential move to Las Vegas.
The organization filed a trademark application last week for "Las Vegas Raiders" with the U.S. Patent and Trademark office, according to Forbes.That's no guarantee for a move, of course, as evidenced by the Chargers applying for "LA Chargers" but currently remaining in San Diego."That said, these types of filings do serve to demonstrate that there is a true effort to at least strongly consider relocation," wrote Forbes' Darren Heitner.However, there are plenty more hurdles to relocation for Raiders owner Mark Davis and Co.
