    A person familiar with the situation says the Jacksonville Jaguars are going to play multiple home games in London beginning in 2013. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the NFL and the team are waiting to announce the deal Tuesday in Jacksonville. The Jaguars scheduled a news conference, but declined to say what it was concerning. New owner Shad Khan has made it clear he wants to play games overseas in hopes of increasing the team's brand globally. He even mentioned it during his introductory news conference last year.

    Great news on two levels.

    1. London/UK has a long term future of hosting NFL games
    2. I get to see my Rams in my own backyard and get to save my money for four seasons! :icon_smile:

    The teams they are playing should have to agree to playing over there too...that's kind of bullcrap that they get forced over there.
