The Philadelphia Eagles will face the Jacksonville Jaguars in London at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in a Week 5 road matchup (note that the Birds are NOT losing a home game) starting at 9:30 AM Eastern on Sunday, October 11.
This much according to reporting from Ryan Fowler (who was first to leak the Eagles playing the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving ) and @OzzyNFL . The Eagles previously played the Jags (and beat them) in London during the 2018 season. That game was hosted at Wembley Stadium, so, itโll be a different venue this time around.
Are you going to make the trip? Jacksonville is coming off a 13-4 finish where they won the AFC South but lost to the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card round of the playoffs. Liam Coen was a Coach of the Year finalist in his first year on the job.
The Eagles last played the Jags in 2024. That was a pretty entertaining game which featured Saquon Barkley breaking out his jaw-dropping reverse hurdle. Phillyโs last international game was when they played a โhomeโ game against the Green Bay Packers in Brazil to open their 2024 season.
