Now that Los Angeles will be getting the NFL back, it looks like the teams will have a place to play … and soon. 

There is a lot of NFL news hitting the wire on Tuesday night, and it has to do with relocation. Yes, after all of the whispers the past few years or so, the NFL will be making its return to Los Angeles. It was announced that the Rams will be going back home to LA, while the Chargers are not all that far behind.

Now, there are a lot of questions still to be answered. One of those questions, obviously, has been where the teams will play their games until a new stadium is built.

Well, it looks like that might not be all that much of a problem at all, really. The University of Southern California has apparently allowed two NFL teams to play their games inside the famed Coliseum beginning as early as the 2016 season.

So, that appears to solve that issue. As far as Los Angeles goes, everything seems to be going pretty smoothly with all of this so far.

The two NFL teams –the Chargers and Rams– will be using the home of the Trojans until the proposed stadium in Inglewood is built for their future use.
