The NFL has recently announced all the home teams for its five international fixtures to be played in the 2022 regular season. This announcement has made the six-month-long wait for the fans even more insufferable. As big teams like the Green Bay Packers and the Super Bowl LV champions Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be hosting one too.
All in all, it is going to be a special season for the league, assuming there will be no hitches during the regular season. The league is going full throttle in its international campaigns to lure fans from the UK, Mexico, and Germany.

Green Bay Packers hosting an international fixture for the first time
The 2021 NFC No. 1 seeded team, Green Bay Packers, will host its first-ever international game. It is going to be a much-anticipated fixture for the Packers fans since they won’t disappoint from painting the streets of London with green and gold. However, the Packers still have their fingers crossed, as they want to see their superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers in London too.
“The Green Bay Packers are excited to make our international debut during the 2022 season,” Packers president/CEO Mark Murphy said. “Our fans in the UK and elsewhere in Europe have been eagerly awaiting an opportunity to see the Packers play in their backyard, and we know that many of our fans in the United States will travel to London.”

Tampa Bay Buccaneers to host first-ever Germany fixture in NFL history
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have got the opportunity to host the first-ever NFL regular-season game played in Germany. Unfortunately, Tom Brady will not be a part of it. At least as of now. Had Tom Brady not retired, he would have become the first player ever to have played in all four countries: the US, England, Mexico, and Germany.

The NFL has yet to reveal the opponents for their international fixtures. But the hype has already jumped off the roofs. The league will reveal the 2022 regular season fixtures somewhere between early to mid-May. But are the fans patient enough to wait that long?
