Golden Knights’ owner congratulates NFL’s Raiders on move to Las Vegas

Bill Foley is extending a welcoming hand to the NFL's Oakland Raiders.

The owner of the NHL's Golden Knights offered congratulations to Mark Davis and the Oakland Raiders after it was confirmed the team would be relocating to Las Vegas for the 2019 season.

More from Foley:

It truly is an exciting time to be from Las Vegas. There is only a select group of cities in North America that are home to both an NHL and an NFL franchise and Vegas is now one of them.

This alone should be a great source of pride for our community and our fans. Las Vegas has always been one of the most popular destination cities in the world and it is now emerging as a premier location for major league professional sports.

The Raiders are set to build a new stadium in Las Vegas, while the Golden Knights are set to take to the ice at T-Mobile Arena beginning next season.
