Report: NFL to negotiate with Las Vegas for 2029 Super Bowl

The NFL is set to start negotiations with the city of Las Vegas for Super Bowl LXIII in 2029, Sports Business Journal reported Friday.

Las Vegas, home to the Raiders since 2020, played host to Super Bowl LVIII in February of 2024 when the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime at Allegiant Stadium.

The report cautions there is no guarantee that the league and the city will come to terms.

This season’s Super Bowl is set for Feb. 8, 2026, at Santa Clara, Calif. The game will take place Levis Stadium, home of the San Francisco 49ers. The Los Angeles Rams are set to play host to the Super Bowl in February of 2027 at Inglewood, Calif., while the Atlanta Falcons are set to play host in February of 2028.

According to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, the city of New Orleans hopes to be considered for a Super Bowl as soon as 2031. New Orleans has played host to the Super Bowl 11 times, tied with the Miami metropolitan area for most all time.

The Super Bowl has been played in 16 different Super Bowl markets and at 27 different stadiums, with New Orleans’ Superdome hosting the most times (eight).

The San Francisco 49ers had an eventful season opener, so much so they might welcome a calmer day Sunday when they face the Saints in New Orleans.

On the positive side, the 49ers rallied late in the fourth quarter to secure a 17-13 road win against division rival Seattle.

But everything didn’t turn out as well as the final score.

Star tight end George Kittle suffered a hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve, kicker Jake Moody missed two field goals that triggered his release, and most significantly, quarterback Brock Purdy sustained toe and shoulder injuries that likely will keep him out of Sunday’s game in New Orleans.

San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan said Purdy is “a long shot” to play Sunday, meaning Mac Jones likely will start.
