The Oakland Raiders could become the Las Vegas Raiders as early as Monday, when NFL owners are expected to vote on the team's relocation proposal.

ESPN's Adam Schefter says he's heard the Raiders will get the votes needed for the proposal to pass. USA TODAY Sports' Tom Pelissero was told by one owner that the vote should be roughly 28-4 in favor of the move.

Davis needs 24 of 32 votes for the motion to pass.

"It's a done deal," the owner told Pelissero.

There could still be a last-ditch effort to keep the Raiders in Oakland - and the team isn't expected to move to Las Vegas for a few years, which could lead to some awkward seasons in Oakland - but at this time it appears the Raiders' future will be decided by the end of day Monday.
