The Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, Jacksonville Jaguars, Washington Commanders, Los Angeles Rams, and Detroit Lions will all play games overseas. Two of these teams will have multiple international battles.
The Jacksonville Jaguars, as expected, will continue to play in the United Kingdom. The AFC South franchise has longstanding ties to the country, which will continue into 2026 with two games in London.
The Jaguars have played 14 games overseas — 11 at Wembley Stadium and three at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The team will play one game at each stadium next season.
The Washington Commanders will also make the trip to London. The NFC East team will have one game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after playing in Madrid last season.
The Atlanta Falcons, as announced on Tuesday morning, will head to Madrid, Spain, in 2026. The NFC South team will suit up at Bernabéu — home to Real Madrid C.F. — as part of a multi-year deal between the NFL and the City of Madrid.
The New Orleans Saints will also take the NFC South to Europe in 2026. The team will head to Stade de France in Paris, France, sometime during the regular season. The NFL did not reveal the Saints' opponent, but a French outlet pointed to the Browns as the other team.
The Dallas Cowboys will head overseas for the first time in 12 years, and the team will take on a new territory. They will play a game in Brazil. However, this game will take place in Rio de Janeiro. The last two International Series games in Brazil took place in Sao Paulo.
The Cowboys last played an overseas regular-season game in 2014. The team faced off with the Jaguars at Wembley Stadium in London. The Cowboys won 31-17.
The San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams will both head to Australia during the 2026 regular season. They will face off during a game at the MCG in Melbourne, Australia. This game will pit NFC West foes against each other, and it could play a significant role in the outcome of the division.
"We're thrilled the NFL will be touching down in the sporting capital of Australia. Victoria is now the first-ever state in Australia to host a regular season NFL game," said Premier of Victoria Jacinta Allan.
"It's a win for jobs, a win for businesses and a win for fans who will get to see American football played at the iconic MCG."
