Jacksonville Jaguars will play back-to-back games in London in 2020 NFL season

The Jaguars announced on Tuesday they are going to play a second home game in London during the 2020 regular season, reducing their home schedule in Jacksonville to just six games.

It will be the fewest home games available to fans at TIAA Bank Field in the 25-year existence of the franchise. The team will be the first in NFL history to play two games outside of the United States in the same season.

Jaguars president Mark Lamping said they reached an agreement with the league that the two games in London will be played on back-to-back weekends. The official dates of the two games will be announced during the schedule release in April.

The Jaguars’ marquee home games against the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Chicago Bears were protected and will be played at TIAA Bank Field.

Lamping also announced the Jaguars will be introducing a variable pricing plan, in which games against marquee opponents will be priced slightly higher.

However, the Jaguars are reducing their preseason game prices by 50 percent and season ticket holders will be paying 15% less in 2020 than they paid in 2019, Lamping said.
