No overseas games for NFL in 2020

On Monday, the NFL made an announcement they’ve likely been discussing for some time, and reluctantly decided to move forward with. For the 2020 season, there will be no league games played overseas.

“After considerable analysis, we believe the decision to play all our games domestically this season is the right one for our players, our clubs, and all our fans in the US, Mexico and UK,” said NFL Executive Vice President, Chief Strategy & Growth Officer Christopher Halpin. “We greatly appreciate the support of our governmental and stadium partners in Mexico and the United Kingdom, who all agree with this decision, and we look forward to returning for games in both countries in the 2021 season.
