SAN DIEGO -- Last month, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell told fans of the San Diego Chargers that he was confident owners would back a new stadium supported by a Super Bowl.
Goodell may be ready to firm up that commitment. During this week’s quarterly NFL owners meetings in Charlotte, owners are expected to consider guaranteeing the return of a Super Bowl to San Diego if a new stadium is built here.
The Los Angeles Times was first to report the news.
NFL owners will hear a progress report on the stadium issue in San Diego, which will include a summary on whether a citizens’ initiative ballot measure in November will require a simple majority or a two-thirds vote.
