The NFL International Series started in 2007 when the New York Giants and the Miami Dolphins played a regular-season game at Wembley Stadium.
Since then, the iconic stadium in England has hosted NFL games annually.
But in order to reach more audiences, the league played in other venues like Twickenham Stadium and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The 2022 edition of these overseas games is different because it will be the first time that the NFL will play in Germany.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Seattle Seahawks will play that game on November 13 at Allianz Arena in Munich.
Given the significance of that milestone and the fact the international games are growing in number, the league is already building the hype around the games in the United Kingdom.

NFL UK tweets, “A star-studded line-up. The 2022 NFL London Games will take centre stage in October!”
It comes with a poster that exudes a carnival atmosphere and it contains the names of the top players who will suit up for the three games.
It’s no surprise that reigning Most Valuable Player Aaron Rodgers and Pro Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson get the top billing.
However, they will be facing different teams in their game across the ocean.
Which Teams Will Play In The 2022 NFL London Games?
Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers will face the Giants on October 9 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
A week before that game, Jameis Winston and the New Orleans Saints will play Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings in the same venue.
Finally, Wilson and the Denver Broncos will compete against Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 30 at Wembley.
To complete the list of this year’s International Series, the San Francisco 49ers and the Arizona Cardinals will play at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico on November 21.
