2023 NFL Schedule: Jaguars Become First Team To Play in London in Back-to-Back Weeks

The Jaguars will be spending Weeks 4 and 5 in London, playing the Atlanta Falcons and Buffalo Bills.

It is official: the Jacksonville Jaguars will spend two weeks in London during the 2023 season.

The NFL officially announced five international games on Wednesday, with two of those games placing the Jaguars in London: a Week 4 "home" game vs. the Atlanta Falcons, and then a Week 5 "road" game vs. the Buffalo Bills, where the Bills will be the designated home team. 

The Jaguars will kick off the 2023 NFL International Games on Sunday, October 1, as they play the Atlanta Falcons at Wembley Stadium, in what will be their landmark 10th regular season home game in London," the NFL said in a release.

"The London focus then shifts to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as the Buffalo Bills take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, October 8. This game for Jacksonville means they will play two regular season games outside of the US – a first for the NFL."

“The stars are aligning with the Jaguars’ home schedule and the NFL schedule of London games for the first time,” Jaguars president Mark Lamping told the Florida Times-Union before the 2023 NFL Draft. “There’s a much greater likelihood this year we could be asked to play as a visitor. 

The Jaguars have played in London in nine of the last 10 seasons, with 2020 being the lone season the Jaguars didn't participate in an international game (a result of the COVID-19 pandemic). The Jaguars are 4-5 in London after losing last year's contest to the Denver Broncos in a 21-17 fashion, setting up their impressive second-half run.
