Chargers, Raiders Hire Carmen Policy To Oversee Carson Project

The Chargers and Raiders hired former 49ers President & CEO Carmen Policy to oversee the potential football stadium project the two teams will share in Carson, Calif. The development comes on the heels of San Diego unveiling a stadium proposal designed to keep the Chargers in town. The Chargers have said they will focus on both the San Diego and Carson opportunities.

Policy, who has been out of the NFL for over a decade, described his role as part political and part overseeing the business of the new project. Asked how his hiring might be interpreted in San Diego, he declined to comment, saying one of his conditions for the job was he would not talk about other markets. This comes as the NFL owners meetings starting today in S.F. will have a heavy emphasis on the L.A. stadium projects.
