NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, left, laughs as Oakland Raiders owner Mark Davis talks to the media after an NFL owners meeting Tuesday, Jan. 12, 2016, in Houston.

If the Raiders want to move to Las Vegas, Roger Goodell isn't completely opposed to the idea. The NFL commissioner told Rich Eisen on Tuesday that if the Raiders want to move there and the owners are willing to approve it, then he likely wouldn't get in the way.

"Ultimately, it's the ownership's decision," Goodell said on the Rich Eisen Show. "It requires 24 of the 32 owners to approve any relocation to any market."

Although the NFL would be on board if the owners approved the move, Goodell did point out that the league would have to iron out a few things before any potential move happened.
