Rozelle: AFL in Houston won’t block NFL move
NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle said Houston already having an AFL club won’t affect the league’s move decision. He noted Dallas, St. Louis and Pittsburgh have not been named expansion sites and did not rule out Houston joining later, with Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Miami, New Orleans, Seattle, Portland, Phoenix and Cincinnati among potential sites. A marketing report on 3 or 4 cities will be completed by late fall and presented at the February owners meeting.
