The NFL is closely monitoring the Los Angeles wildfires, which have caused significant air quality issues with an index ranging from 150 to over 300. The league has a contingency plan to move the Vikings-Rams wild-card playoff game to State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, if necessary. This decision comes as the air quality in Inglewood, where SoFi Stadium is located, reached 281, considered “very unhealthy.” The Rams, based in Woodland Hills, have not been directly affected, but the Chargers altered their practice schedule to limit outdoor exposure. The NFL has a history of relocating games due to wildfires, having done so in 2003. The Chargers also announced a $200,000 donation to support relief efforts. The fires have already claimed at least five lives, with many injured, highlighting the severity of the situation.
