NFL has a Los Angeles Rams webpage

Los-Angeles-Rams-NFL-page

The NFL may have given an indication that the St. Louis Rams will be relocating to Los Angeles.

The screenshot you see above came directly from a subpage of NFL.com that is currently using the URL http://www.nfl.com/teams/profile?team=LA. As of Monday afternoon, the Los Angeles Rams page — which was discovered by Field of Schemes — was still live. Is that some sort of coincidental error, or has the NFL already decided that the Rams are headed west?

We know that Rams used to play in LA, but it is interesting that the page with the LA extension would link to the Rams and not the Oakland Raiders, who also called Los Angeles home about 20 years ago.

At this point, it is all but certain that one or more NFL franchises are going to be calling Los Angeles home within the next year or two. The San Diego Chargers and Oakland Raiders have already presented the league with an impressive stadium concept, while St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke has been planning to build a massive football complex in Inglewood.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said at the draft that any stadium that is built in Los Angeles will have the ability to house two teams. It’s unclear where that leaves Kroenke’s Inglewood project, which was already labeled a “terrorism target” by competing teams in LA.

If the LA stadium that the Chargers and Raiders have proposed includes this incredible feature, we’re all hoping the plan comes to fruition. Still, you can’t help but wonder if the NFL’s official LA Rams page means something.

UPDATE: Apparently there is also a Los Angeles Raiders page, which you can see here. The same is true for the Boston Patriots if you type “BOS” at the end of the same link, so odds are these are just references to NFL teams that have relocated.
