Last-ditch efforts by Oakland leaders to keep the Raiders from moving to Las Vegas haven't moved the ball with the NFL.

In a letter to Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, who publicly released additional details Friday of a plan the NFL deemed unworkable months ago, Commissioner Roger Goodell reiterated that key issues with the Oakland proposal remain unresolved and NFL owners will consider the Raiders' relocation application at the league meeting that begins Sunday in Phoenix.

"Despite all of these efforts, ours and yours, we have not yet identified a viable solution," Goodell wrote.
