In May 2021, the NFL announced the International Series would return to the UK that autumn with a pair of NFL London Games played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The matchups confirmed were the Atlanta Falcons v New York Jets on 10 October and Jacksonville Jaguars v Miami Dolphins on 17 October 2021.

NFL London Games 2021 schedule:

Atlanta Falcons v New York Jets
Sunday 10 October 2021, 14:30 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Playing for only their second time in the UK and the first since 2015, the New York Jets will face the Atlanta Falcons led by four-time Pro Bowler Matt Ryan. This will also be the Falcons second trip across the pond, having previously played in London in 2014.

Jacksonville Jaguars v Miami Dolphins
Sunday 17 October 2021, 14:30 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

The Jacksonville Jaguars are set to play in their record eighth London game this autumn against the Miami Dolphins, on their fifth visit to the capital.

The Atlanta Falcons will host the New York Jets on Sunday, October 10 and the Jacksonville Jaguars will be at home against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, October 17, with both games kicking off at 2.30 p.m. UK time (9.30 a.m. ET).

The NFL's London Games series has comprised 28 games over 13 consecutive seasons from 2007-2019. This season's games will represent the continuation of this important international initiative after the coronavirus pandemic forced all games in 2020 to be played in the United States.

This year's schedule means that fans in the UK will get to see some of the most exciting quarterbacks in the League, from the first two picks of the 2021 NFL Draft -- Trevor Lawrence (Jaguars) and Zach Wilson (Jets) -- to four-time Pro Bowler Matt Ryan of the Falcons and the Dolphins' talented play-caller Tua Tagovailoa.

The UK's Culture Secretary, Oliver Dowden, said: "The NFL has become a regular fixture in the UK's brilliant sporting calendar and I'm delighted to welcome the League back to London for another season. This is a major vote of confidence in our country's progress to bring coronavirus under control and our ability to stage major sporting events safely. Our Events Research Programme is playing an important role in testing the safe return of fans and will inform our decision making on getting people back watching live sport again safely in greater numbers."

The Jaguars will be playing their eighth home game in London, while the Dolphins will play in the UK for the fifth time, and second time as the road team. The Falcons and Jets will both take the field in London for the second time.

The NFL International Series is a series of American football games during the National Football League (NFL) regular season that are played outside the United States. Since 2017, the series has two sub-series: the NFL London Games in London, which has been in place since 2007, and the NFL Mexico Game in Mexico City, which began in 2016 with a predecessor game in 2005.

Initially, all games in the International Series were held in London. Wembley Stadium was the exclusive home stadium for International Series games from 2007 to 2015 and continued to host at least two NFL games through 2019; beginning in 2016, the series expanded to more stadiums, first to Twickenham Stadium in London (2016–17) and to Estadio Azteca in Mexico City (2016–17, 2019) and eventually to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London (2019, 2021–28), with possible future plans to expand the series to Germany and/or Canada.
