The NFL has decided to relocate the Los Angeles Rams-Minnesota Vikings Wild Card Weekend game to State Farm Stadium amid the horrifying wildfires across Southern California.

On Thursday evening, the NFL announced that the Rams-Vikings Wild Card Round game has been relocated from SoFi Stadium to State Farm Stadium, the home of the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals.

The league previously announced that the Cardinals’ stadium would be used as plan B if SoFi Stadium wasn’t safe. The Southern California Wildfires started on Tuesday and have destroyed over 5,000 structures and caused the deaths of at least six people.
