thank you to our @nfl family + everyone who has and continues to donate to our community’s relief efforts. https://t.co/PY6H43Tywm
The franchise announced they were donating $200,000 to relief efforts for the deadly wildfires, and now, the NFL is also assisting in the relief.
The NFL announced that numerous franchises are giving $5 million to support those who were affected by the wildfires. Among the ownership groups that are helping are: the Chargers, Los Angeles Rams, Minnesota Vikings, and the Houston Texans.
The game between the Rams and Vikings has been moved to Arizona, while the Chargers will be in Houston on Saturday.
The Texans and Chargers may be enemies for 60 minutes on Saturday. But today, the NFL is one big family helping those in need.
