However, Raiders fans won’t be able to attend this summer’s training camp, which will be held in Los Angeles. The NFL rules regarding “exclusive home territory” for teams in the market prohibit fans from attending practices. The Raiders would be in violation of the rule if they permitted public access or invited local media to training camp.

Owner Mark Davis told ESPN that the Rams and Chargers enforced the restrictions, and there are no established paths to overturn the exclusivity clause. “It would be nice if all the fans could be there, but, whatever. Like I said, the Chargers and Rams have that ability,” he said.

Head coach Antonio Pierce said the only reason he would be concerned is if the primary objective of “team bonding” was impacted. From his perspective, the rule doesn’t change things for training camp. “Team bonding, getting together and getting to know one another, to get away from all the distractions — it’s all about ball,” he told ESPN. “Just ball.”
