NFL London teams confirmed for 2025 as part of biggest-ever international series

The NFL has announced its biggest-ever schedule of international games for 2025, revealing the identities of the six teams that will play in London.

The capital will once again host three regular-season games in October, with the Minnesota Vikings and New York Jets both heading back across the Atlantic for the second consecutive year along with London regulars the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Vikings - who beat the Jets 23-17 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last year - are back at Spurs on October 5 to meet the Cleveland Browns in a repeat of an NFL London game from 2017, which the Vikings won 33-16 at Twickenham.

A week later at Tottenham the Jets battle the Denver Broncos, who last came to London in 2022 and beat the Jaguars 21-17 at Wembley.

The Jags are returning to Wembley on October 19 against the Los Angeles Rams, who last visited the home of English football in 2019 when they defeated future Super Bowl opponents the Cincinnati Bengals 24-10.

The Vikings are set to become the first team in NFL history to play back-to-back international games in different countries in 2025, heading to Dublin before London as they take on the Pittsburgh Steelers at Croke Park on September 28 in the first regular-season game to be held in Ireland.

The NFL is also heading to Berlin for the first time in 2025 after hosting games in Munich and Frankfurt in recent years, with the Atlanta Falcons and Indianapolis Colts going head to head at the Olympiastadion on November 9.

The 2025 International Games begin on September 5 with a second contest at the Arena Corinthians in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo between the Los Angeles Chargers and opponents to be announced on Wednesday, while they conclude with a first regular-season clash in Madrid on November 16 between the Washington Commanders and Miami Dolphins at Real Madrid’s Santiago Bernabeu.

The NFL will announce their full regular-season schedule for 2025 on Wednesday night, but have already confirmed a number of games including the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles opening the campaign at home to their arch-rivals and NFC East foes the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field on September 4.
