The NFL schedule release showed teams, pundits, and fans alike a lot of things.
One of those things was who will be playing in the league’s international games.
The Jacksonville Jaguars will be playing in multiple games over in England.
In both Week 6 and Week 7, Doug Pederson’s team will play across the pond.
They will play the Chicago Bears at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before playing the New England Patriots at Wembley Stadium.
According to NBC Sports, Jacksonville has played the most international games in the history of the NFL.
They have played a whopping 13 games abroad.
The second closest team is the Buffalo Bills with 8.
Then, the Miami Dolphins have 7.
Both the Patriots and the Las Vegas Raiders have 5.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have had nearly twice as many international games on their schedule as any other team. 😲 pic.twitter.com/hC0BPSFGyZ

The NFL has clearly dubbed the Jaguars as the NFL’s unofficial team of Great Britain.
This season, their popularity in England will only grow.
If luck is on their side and the talent that they have produces, the Jaguars will be pretty good this year.
Pro Bowl quarterback Trevor Lawrence, along with the likes of 1,000-yard rusher Travis Etienne, 1,000-yard receiver Christian Kirk, Pro Bowl tight end Evan Engram, and new receiver Gabe Davis will help this offense take it up a notch.
Just two years after winning a playoff game for the first time since 2017 and after back-to-back winning seasons, Jacksonville has a chance to compete again in 2024.
Fans, especially in London, should keep an eye out for this team as they look to be great.
