iStock/Thinkstock(OAKLAND, Calif.) — The Oakland Raiders announced Thursday that they will continue to play home games at their current O.co Coliseum in Oakland, California, ESPN reports.
The team announced that their lease was extended to include the 2016 season, with options for 2017 and 2018.
“My heart is here in Oakland, and if we can get something done, that’s what we’re going to do,” team owner Mark Davis said.
The Raiders have called the O.co Coliseum home since the 1995 season. The team had been on a year-to-year lease as they looked into a possible move to Los Angeles.
The Raiders would also have the option to relocate to Los Angeles in 2017 if the San Diego Chargers decide to remain in San Diego rather than share a stadium with the Rams in Inglewood, according to ESPN.
