Nevada Sen. Reid wants Raiders, but mum on taxpayer money

Sen. Harry Reid says he’s a big fan of efforts to lure the Raiders to Las Vegas, but is keeping mum on whether he thinks taxpayers should help foot the bill for a football stadium.

The Nevada Democrat says there’s no federal money involved in plans to build a 65,000-seat domed stadium, so he’ll leave it to state and local officials to debate spending $750 million in Clark County hotel-room tax money on the project, expected to cost $1.7 billion to $2.1 billion.

A three-quarters vote from NFL owners is required for an NFL team to relocate — as the Rams did this season when they returned to Los Angeles from St. Louis.

Giants owner John Mara said he was fine with the NFL’s suspension of placekicker Josh Brown for one game, despite allegations Brown abused his ex-wife as many as 20 times before the Giants signed him to a two-year extension last spring.

San Diego withdrew its contract offer to first-round draft pick Joey Bosa and will restructure a new one that takes into account his absence from the team.
