Coach & League CommentsJaguars head coach Liam Coen emphasized the passionate UK fan base:
"Last season was my first experience in London as head coach of the Jaguars, and my immediate takeaway was London is undoubtedly our home away from home. We have a passionate and knowledgeable fan base in London, built over time and still growing... With two games in London in 2026, it’s going to be great fun for our fans in London as well as for everyone in Jacksonville who will be making the trip."The NFL continues prioritizing global growth through these games, supported by long-term commitments in key markets.What's NextOpponents for most games remain TBA.
