NFL Schedule: League Approves 10 International Games in 2027
If approved, the change could lift the league’s overseas total to 11 games next season as owners ease home-game protections.
- NFL owners are meeting in Orlando this week to vote on adding two international games to the 2027 schedule, expanding the league's global reach.
- To deliver quality inventory to international fans, the league is reducing the number of home games teams can protect from their schedules, removing restrictions on marquee matchups.
- NFL EVP Peter O'Reilly announced owners voted to increase the international game cap from eight to 10 in 2027, potentially allowing 11 games including The Jaguars at Wembley Stadium.
- Reaching 11 games requires NFLPA ratification of the CBA, as the current agreement caps international games at 10, making this vote a critical expansion step.
- NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell eventually envisions 16 international games per season, with officials exploring markets like Australia, Japan, and Italy to broaden the league's presence.
