The home teams for the NFL’s 2019 International Games were announced last month, and now the league has revealed the five teams that will be traveling abroad to face them.
The exact weeks for the International Games are not yet known, but here are the matchups we’ll be seeing this fall:
-Carolina Panthers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (London)
-Chicago Bears vs. Oakland Raiders (London)
-Cincinnati Bengals vs. Los Angeles Rams (London)
-Houston Texans vs. Jacksonville Jaguars (London)
-Kansas City Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers (Mexico City)
Included in the five International Games is a reunion between Bears edge defender Khalil Mack and his former team, the Raiders. If the Rams are able to defeat the Patriots in Super Bowl LIII on February 3, fans in the United Kingdom will see the defending Super Bowl champions for a second straight season (the Eagles faced the Jaguars in 2018). The two other London matchups feature divisional games between the Panthers and Bucs and the Texans and Jaguars. Meanwhile, the fans in Mexico City will see likely league MVP Patrick Mahomes leading an electric offense against Philip Rivers and the star-studded Chargers.
Two games will be held at Tottenham Hotspur’s new stadium, two games will be held at Wembley Stadium, and the game in Mexico will be held at Azteca Stadium.
Mack will get 3-4 sacks and make Gruden look stupid.
