LONDON (AP) – NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says the NFL’s overseas success doesn’t mean the Super Bowl is crossing the Atlantic or that the league is going back to continental Europe.
Goodell said the expansion from two to three NFL regular season games starting next season has the league exploring how to continue growing its International Series brand. More games could come to London, which will need a franchise before it can even dream of hosting the Super Bowl. And that is some time away.
The NFL created a European league in the 1990’s that had teams based in in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, and Spain, before it folded in 2007.
