NFL UK Exec Names Ireland As International Market Being Explored For Future Game

The Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t played a regular season game in an international market since 2013 when they faced the Minnesota Vikings in London. As a part of the NFL’s Global Markets Program, team president Art Rooney II stated that all teams will be playing internationally within the next few years as the NFL ramps up its efforts.

The Steelers have rights to market in Germany, Ireland, and Mexico. Games have already been played in both Mexico and Germany in the past, but Ireland has never hosted a game. According to the General Manager of the NFL’s UK office, Henry Hodgson, Dublin could be one of the next cities to host a game.
