NFL Signs 10-Year Deal For Games At New Tottenham Stadium

The NFL today announced that it has signed a 10-year agreement with Tottenham Hotspur to play two regular-season games annually at the EPL club’s new London stadium starting in '18, when the venue opens. The agreement does not mean the NFL is moving away from Wembley Stadium, where it has staged regular-season games annually since '07, including three last year. The league fully expects to renew its deal with Wembley, whose contract with the NFL ends after the '16 season. A deal there would mean the NFL would play games beginning in '18 at both venues. Tottenham's stadium will have two fields: a permanent field for the NFL and, on top of that, a soccer field that can slide out of the venue.
