The New York Jets and New York Giants will be heading overseas this season as the NFL unveiled its 2024 International schedule.
After weeks, days and even hours of rumors and speculation, the NFL confirmed what many had believed: the New York Jets will take on the Minnesota Vikings in London, England on October 6. The Giants will head to Munich, Germany to take on the Carolina Panthers on November 10.
JETS - VIKINGS
The Jets and Vikings are two of seven NFL teams that have partnerships with the United Kingdom, so it is no surprise that both teams are heading across the pond for this match-up.
This will be the third time the Jets have played in London. New York is 1-1 in the UK, with a win over the Miami Dolphins in 2015, and a loss at the hands of the Atlanta Falcons in 2021.
Minnesota is 3-0 all time in the UK.
This will be Aaron Rodgers second ever appearance in the UK. He made his first two seasons ago with the Green Bay Packers, when the Giants beat the Cheeseheads 27-22.
GIANTS - PANTHERS
The Giants are one of 10 NFL teams that have a partnership with Germany. The Giants have never played in Germany, although they are 3-0 in the International Series with all their wins coming in the United Kingdom.
In fact, Big Blue won the inaugural London game back in 2007 over the Miami Dolphins.
The rest of the NFL schedule will be announced tonight.
