Rooney is the Chairman of the NFL's Stadium Committee, and helped discussions the Minnesota Vikings had with local politicians when they were looking to build a new stadium in 2012 (the Vikings are set to open their new digs in 2016).
The Raiders currently share the outdated O.co Coliseum with the MLB's Oakland A's, and are searching for a new location once their lease lapses following the season.
Raiders owner Mark Davis is reportedly looking at San Antonio is a possible landing spot for the team.
