The NFL has been playing games in London since 2007, and one team has been featured more than the rest: the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Jacksonville’s consistent presence has been the primary pillar of the NFL’s European expansion. The commitment stems from Jaguars owner Shad Khan, who initially signed a deal in 2012 for the team to play one home game in London annually.
The Jaguars' willingness to sacrifice a home game each season transformed them into the unofficial "home team" of London. While other teams rotate international appearances, the Jaguars' reliability and Khan’s business connections in the U.K. have been instrumental to the NFL’s long-term global growth strategy, making their annual trip a core part of the league’s calendar.
Here's what to know about the Jaguars in London.

Why do the Jaguars always play in London?
In 2012, Jaguars owner Shad Khan signed a deal with the English Football Association to play in London for four consecutive seasons.
The Jaguars played at Wembley Stadium in 2013, 2014 and 2015, then Khan re-signed the team's partnership to continue to play in London through 2020.
“This is great news for the Jaguars and the stability of the team in Jacksonville, which has come to embrace London as our home away from home,” Khan said in 2015 after signing an extension with the English Football Association.
Jacksonville played one game in London from 2016 to 2019, but the coronavirus pandemic prevented the Jaguars from completing their contract as no games were played overseas in 2020.
The Jags continue to have an agreement in place to play at least one game in London each season, and they have an option to play more home games there while their real home stadium is undergoing renovations.

Could the Jaguars eventually move to London?
There were rumors that the Jaguars could move to London when their owner, Shad Khan, attempted to purchase Wembley Stadium back in 2018. Khan eventually withdrew his offer for the stadium and the Jaguars-to-London rumor was squashed after Chris Halpin, the league's chief strategy and growth officer, told Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer that the NFL was inching away from the idea of moving a franchise there.
On top of the logistical difficulties of playing eight home games in London and eight road games in the United States, the Jaguars also have a lease with their stadium in Jacksonville, EverBank Field, through 2030.

Jaguars dominate Ravens
The most dominant victory came on Sept. 24, 2017, against the Baltimore Ravens at Wembley Stadium. The Jaguars delivered an astonishing 44-7 blowout — a scoreline that, at the time, was one of the most lopsided victories in franchise history. Quarterback Blake Bortles threw four touchdown passes, with tight end Marcedes Lewis hauling in three, but the story was the stifling defense. The unit, featuring Jalen Ramsey and Calais Campbell, held Joe Flacco's Ravens offense to a mere 15 net yards in the entire first half, establishing a commanding 23-0 lead and setting a powerful tone for the rest of the season.
Comeback thriller vs Bills
The most dramatic victory, however, belongs to the Oct. 25, 2015 game against the Buffalo Bills. In an emotional seesaw battle at Wembley, the Jaguars jumped out to a seemingly insurmountable 27-3 lead thanks to two defensive touchdowns scored just seven seconds apart. The Bills mounted a massive second-half comeback to take a 31-27 lead late in the fourth quarter on a pick-six. Yet, Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles recovered his composure to deliver a thrilling, game-winning 31-yard touchdown pass to Allen Hurns with just over two minutes remaining, sealing a 34-31 victory and securing the franchise's first-ever win in London.
Jaguars get first win in nearly 400 days
The Jaguars entered the game with an agonizing 20-game losing streak, the second-longest in NFL history at the time, behind only the 1976-77 Buccaneers.
With the score tied at 20-20 late in the fourth quarter, the Jaguars defense forced a critical turnover-on-downs by stuffing a fourth-and-one run attempt by Miami. This clutch stop set the stage for an unlikely hero, kicker Matthew Wright. Wright, who had been signed just weeks earlier, proceeded to nail a 53-yard field goal as time expired, giving the Jaguars a thrilling 23-20 victory and ending their 399-day winless streak.
Beyond breaking the streak, the victory marked the first NFL career win for quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2021 draft. Lawrence became the first-ever rookie quarterback to win a game in London, throwing for 319 yards and a touchdown, including key completions to set up the final field goal.

Jacksonville Jaguars London game history
The Jaguars’ presence in London has evolved, effectively establishing the U.K. as their "second home." This strategy was spearheaded by owner Shad Khan, who in 2012, made the unprecedented decision to commit the team to playing one home game annually in London, a deal that began in 2013.
This long-term commitment was primarily motivated by the need to stabilize the franchise financially, as Jacksonville is one of the smallest NFL markets. The London games provided guaranteed sold-out crowds and allowed the team to secure favorable revenue-sharing agreements, which Khan has consistently leveraged to invest back into the team's facilities and local operations in Florida. The annual presence transformed the Jaguars into the "home team" for a growing British fan base, giving the franchise unique international exposure that other clubs lacked.
Most recently, the Jaguars have deepened their U.K. ties and pushed the boundaries of the International Series. In 2023 and 2024, the team made history by playing back-to-back games in London in the same season, demonstrating a willingness to sacrifice a significant portion of their home schedule to strengthen their overseas brand.
Furthermore, as the team plans extensive renovations to EverBank Stadium, reports suggest the Jaguars may play as many as three home games in London during the 2027 season, further cementing the U.K. as an essential component of the franchise's long-term financial and competitive future.
