• Work on the stadium was scheduled to resume on the 26th

• Responding to oft-recurring rumors that the team would move out of Oakland, owner Ed McGah acknowledged that the team would lose over $700,000 over the next two seasons but that it “would be unrealistic to think we would move then that big new coliseum is in sight”

Transactions

• The team traded quarterback Hunter Enis to the Broncos for linebacker Jackie Simpson and a player to be named later
