The NFL announced the schedule of the 2024 international games. London, Munich and Sao Paulo will be the three cities to host the league.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Friday he would like the league to have as many as 16 international games in a season.
“The ownership’s approved eight games already,” Goodell said before the NFL's first game in Brazil. “I hope to get that to 16 at some point in the future. Let’s see how that goes.”
Goodell was interviewed on Peacock ahead of the streaming service's telecast of Friday night’s matchup between the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles, the first NFL game in South America and one of five international matchups on the 2024 schedule.
That includes three games in London. Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will host a New York Jets-Minnesota Vikings game on Oct. 6 and a Jacksonville Jaguars-Chicago Bears matchup on Oct. 13. The Jaguars will face the New England Patriots at Wembley Stadium on Oct. 20.

Owners voted in December to authorize the league to host eight games internationally each season.
