Los Angeles has been without a pro football team for 20 years, but that could change soon: NBC Sports is reporting that the NFL plans on sending one or two teams to Los Angeles within the next 12 to 24 months.

NBC's NFL source says that during the 2015 or 2016 offseason, a team will announce it is moving to the city, and will play at the L.A. Memorial Coliseum or Rose Bowl. Possible locations for a new stadium include L.A. Live, Hollywood Park, and Chavez Ravine.
