NFL relocation is a hot topic as of late, and there were reports that multiple teams could be heading to Los Angeles as soon as 2015. One of the teams that was considered a potential candidate to move to Los Angeles was the San Diego Chargers.
That won’t be the case as the team announced on Tuesday night their intentions to not terminate their lease at their home stadium, announcing their commitment to continue working with the city.

#Chargers announce they will not exercise stadium termination clause for 2015. That means they have at least another year in San Diego.

In the reports about multiple teams the most likely candidates were the Oakland Raiders and the St. Louis Rams, so the Chargers were an outsider from the beginning.
Still, it is one less potential team to move to Los Angeles.
