Jaguars president Mark Lamping said Thursday the team will be hosting Green Bay in Jacksonville next season.
The Packers were considered a strong contender to be the Jaguars’ opponent in London, the final game of the current four-year deal, but Lamping says the Jaguars want their hometown fans to be able to enjoy that matchup.
“We get the Packers here in Jacksonville so infrequently,” Lamping said. “They have such a national following. We have a lot of people here in Jacksonville that are Jaguars fans but also fans of the traditional NFL teams. So, we look forward to that game being played here in Jacksonville.
