Two tribes are interested in keeping the San Diego Chargers in southern California but both say they won't be able to host a stadium on their reservations.
Frank Riolo of the Viejas Band of Kumeeyay Indians said the tribe's reservation is too small for development and NFL rules regarding gambling could be a hindrance. But he said the tribe is willing to look into a partnership to develop a stadium elsewhere in San Diego County.
The Sycuan Band of Kumeeyay Indians already sponsors the Chargers. But a spokesperson said the tribe is also interested in a partnership for a new stadium.
