The terrifying wildfires that are raging across the state of California are not expected to impact any Week 10 NFL games, but the league did consider changing the location and time of one contest.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the NFL discussed the possibility of moving Sunday’s game between the Los Angeles Chargers and Oakland Raiders to Monday and having it played at AT&T Stadium in Dallas.
NFL always discusses contingency plans for games, and with fires raging in Northern and Southern California, it considered moving today's Chargers-Raiders game to Dallas on Monday night, per source. But no need for now.

Air quality has been a concern in Northern California as wildfires continue to spread, and the Raiders changed one of their practices to a walkthrough earlier in the week because of that. The NFL has been monitoring the situation and apparently feels there will not be a big enough impact to change the location of Sunday’s game.
