Jaguars facing a top NFC contender in 2026 London game

In their first of two games being played in London this season in back-to-back weeks, the Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Philadelphia Eagles.

The game will be played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and take place in Week 5.

The following week, the Jaguars will host the Houston Texans at Wembley Stadium in a pivotal AFC South matchup. The race for the division title in 2025 between these two teams came down to the wire.

Jacksonville Jaguars host Philadelphia Eagles in London in Week 5

Playing in London has been the norm for the Jaguars over the years. Outside of the 2020 season, Jacksonville has played in overseas every year since 2013. This season will be the third time that they've played back-to-back games in London.

Overall, the Jaguars are 7-7 in those 14 games played abroad.

By playing two games in London this season, the Jaguars are no longer required to play in London in 2030, two years after their stadium renovations are completed.

"With the two games in London in 2026, this gives the Jaguars, at minimum, a critical and opportune two-week, in-season construction window," the team said in a statement earlier this offseason.

Teams that play overseas can choose whether they want their bye week right after or later in the season. So with these games taking place in Weeks 5 and 6, the Jaguars' bye this season could fall in Week 7.
