The league pivoted to its contingency plan after the deadly fires burned tens of thousands of acres around Los Angeles.

In response to the wildfires that are ongoing around the Los Angeles area, Monday's playoff matchup against the Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Rams is being moved to Arizona, the league announced in a statement on Thursday evening.

Monday night's NFC wild card game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Minnesota Vikings has been relocated from SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles to State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz. due to the wildfires that have ravaged Southern California.
