San Antonio, Austin, and Orlando all have larger populations than Cincy and would love to add an NFL Team.

Why would other owners care if another team goes into Texas, one of our largest states both in population and geographical area (important for fan bases as they can get closer to their new team than Dallas is to them now).

If he can't stop the move, he will push for a high relocation fee. Since the fee gets split among the other 31 owners, this would be a far different situation than tush push. Rams and Chargers paid $645M or so each 10 years ago. Raiders paid ~ $350M.

If the Bengals get approved to relocate to Austin/San Antonio region, I could see a $500M+ relocation fee levied by the league. So good luck with that.
