History

In October 2007 the NFL held its first regular-season International Series game at Wembley, where the New York Giants beat the Miami Dolphins 13-10 and 40,000 tickets sold out in 90 minutes. Owners then approved up to two overseas games per season, expanding the league to Europe, Germany, Brazil and, by 2026, France. The Paris Week 7 Steelers-Saints clash mirrors that original push, tying global venues to playoff stakes.
