Source: NFL Believes Pegulas Correct Taking Cautious Approach With New Bills Stadium

The NFL last year made a "strong push" for the Bills to build a new stadium, but the league's stance "appears to have softened greatly since then," according to Vic Carucci of the BUFFALO NEWS. A source said that the NFL believes co-Owners Terry and Kim Pegula are "doing the right thing by taking their time before committing to a move from New Era Field." The source said, "They want the team to have some success before asking for things." The source also said that the Pegulas "told the league they're still early in the process of establishing themselves as owners of the Bills and understanding the dynamics of the franchise's relationship with the community" (BUFFALONEWS.com, 3/27). The BUFFALO NEWS' Carucci reports one of the "natural questions emanating from NFL owners" after approving the Raiders' relocation is "whether it sends any sort of message to another team," such as the Bills, with an outdated stadium. However, shortly after the announcement of the Raiders' move, NFL Exec VP/Business Ventures Eric Grubman said that there was "no reason for Bills fans to read anything into its overwhelming approval as it pertains to their team's long-term future" at New Era Field (BUFFALO NEWS, 3/28).
