Highlights
- The NFL has been pushing for international expansion for over 40 years, starting with preseason games and later creating the NFL International Series to play regular season games abroad.
- The league currently has three subseries of games played internationally: NFL London Games, NFL Mexico Games, and NFL Germany Games. It has also launched the Global Markets Program to expand its reach in international markets.
- Although there has been interest in playing a regular-season game in Australia, the long flight duration and logistical challenges make it a difficult prospect. Brazil and Spain are more realistic possibilities for future international games.
