The NFL has confirmed that the New York Jets, Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars will each play international games in London during the 2025 regular season.
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – the only purpose-built NFL stadium outside of the US – will host games featuring both the Jets and the Browns, while the Jaguars will return to Wembley Stadium as part of their multi-year commitment to playing a game in the UK, in what will be their 14th game in the capital.
“We look forward to welcoming the Jets, Browns and Jaguars to London as part of the 2025 NFL International Games,” said Henry Hodgson, NFL UK and Ireland general manager. “This season will see us surpass 40 regular season games in the capital, a testament to the role the UK has played in growing the game globally. The London games are a continued catalyst for year-round fan engagement, and we are focused on serving our 15 million fans, reaching new communities and driving growth in flag football participation, which now sees over 100,000 young people play the game.”
The Jets and Jaguars hold marketing rights in the UK, as part of the League’s Global Markets Programme – an initiative that awards NFL clubs international marketing rights to build brand awareness and fandom beyond the US, through fan engagement, events and commercial opportunities.
Beginning in 2025, the NFL can schedule up to eight League-operated regular season games internationally.
The NFL will also play regular season games in Madrid, Spain at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, home to Real Madrid C.F, and in Berlin, Germany at the Olympic Stadium.
55 regular season NFL games have been played internationally throughout the League’s history, with London hosting 39 of those games to date.
