SAN DIEGO (AP) -- In a continuing effort to keep the Chargers from leaving for the Los Angeles area, Mayor Kevin Faulconer says he told NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and three influential owners that San Diego ''is absolutely an NFL city.''
Faulconer met with Goodell and separately with John Mara of the New York Giants, Robert Kraft of the New England Patriots and Jerry Richardson of the Carolina Panthers. They are members of the Committee on Los Angeles Opportunities.
The Chargers walked away from negotiations for a new stadium in mid-June.
