The NFL and the Cardinals have worked hard to make Monday look and sound like a Rams home game, after wildfires forced a venue change.

Everything seemed pretty normal for the Los Angeles Rams during practice at their temporary home on a beautiful afternoon in suburban Phoenix.

Football game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Minnesota Vikings will be played in Arizona amid the deadly wildfires in Los Angeles.

Briton Jacob Fearnley might be forgiven for having a sinking feeling after seeing his name bracketed with Nick Kyrgios in the first round of the Australian Open.

The move is in "the interest of public safety," according to a news release from the National Football League.

"In the interest of public safety, Monday's Vikings-Rams Wild Card game has been moved from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA to State Farm Stadium, the home of the Arizona Cardinals," the league's statement reads. "The decision was made in consultation with public officials, the participating clubs, and the NFLPA."

The Los Angeles Rams had a lot on their mind as they prepared for the Minnesota Vikings. But the defense held strong in the team's wild-card win.
