11 international NFL games in 2027, Super Bowl in Nashville: 7 NFL news for Tuesday

NFL à l’international : 11 matchs à l’étranger dès 2027 ?

In 2026, the NFL will offer nine international matches. A record. But a record that could be broken next year! According to several sources who spoke to NBC Sports, the owners should vote to add 2 matches abroad in 2027, therefore increasing the total to 11.

For this, the NFL is counting on a trick of “sleight of hand”. Because the current collective agreement limits the NFL to 10 international games per year. But an exception is provided for teams who cannot play in their usual stadium. This will be the case for the Jaguars in 2027 with the renovations of EverBank Stadium.

If the vote is confirmed, it will only be one more element in the NFL’s international strategy. It remains to be seen whether the new matches will be played in new countries or if certain cities will host two matches.

Nashville in the lead to host the 2030 Super Bowl

ESPN announces that Nashville is the big favorite to become the host of the Super Bowl of 2030, for the 64th edition of the grand final. The choice will be confirmed this Tuesday during a meeting between owners.

This would be a great first, because Nashville has never had the privilege of hosting the Super Bowl. The Titans would be “rewarded” for their new stadium which will open in 2027.

The 2028 Draft in Minnesota

Another city ready to host a big NFL event is Minneapolis. The NFL owners should also formalize, this Tuesday, the arrival of the draft in Minneapolis for 2028following negotiations between league officials, local officials and the Vikings.

A major event of the offseason, the major university recruitment fair attracts crowds and viewers. It represents a major impact for the host city, in terms of visibility and tourism.

Since the draft left New York and went traveling in 2015, the vast majority of NFL cities have expressed interest in hosting it.

Cardinals: Jacoby Brissett still not there

The situation is not changing in Arizona. NFL Network announces that Jacoby Brissett (QB) is still absent this Monday for the first voluntary training of the spring workshops. Named starting quarterback for the Cardinals, the veteran is looking for a starting quarterback pay to go with it.

But even if the franchise communicates by saying that the negotiations follow their course, for the moment Brissett remains invisible. He skipped the offseason program, and now he’s skipping voluntary activities.

His new coach, Mike LaFleur, gave a laconic statement on the subject:

“It’s the same thing as a few weeks ago… We had contact, I won’t say more”

Giants: Cam Skattebo late on his rehabilitation but will be there in week 1

Injured in the ankle in week 8, Cam Skattebo (RB) saw his rookie season come to a sudden end. The runner is therefore in full convalescence. A return to form that took a little longer than expected, as the player admits.

“I’m still a little far from coming back,†he declared during a public event in New York.

A little disappointment therefore because the Giants staff thought he would be ready in the spring. Ultimately it might be for summer training camp. But the player wants to reassure the fans.

“From the first week of the season, I will be ready.â€

Saints: Mickey Loomis provides update on negotiations

With the arrival of Travis Etienne (RB), the cryptic declarations of the Saints management, and an uncertain status after June 1, the future ofAlvin Kamara à New Orleans s’écrit entre guillemets. Lundi, Mickey Loomis (GM) a déclaré que the club is still looking for the veteran’s place in the squadand that salary negotiations will likely take place in the coming weeks to clarify the situation. For his part, the 30-year-old veteran expressed his desire to stay in Louisiana.

“We’re just trying to see how he’s going to fit into our group,†Loomis told the New Orleans Times-Picayune. “Obviously, there is a question of resource management. We will take care of it over the coming weeks.”

During the press conference, Loomis also had a few words for other veterans on the team. After 15 years spent in New Orleans, Cam Jordan (DE) publicly announced his intention to continue his career. And the door is not closed for his return with the Saints, since the franchise appears to have prepared an offer for him. On the other hand, there is no plan planned for Taysom Hill (TE/QB/RB)and the gadget player should no longer wear the Fleur de Lys.

How much à Chris Olave (WR)a free agent at the end of next season, a discussion must take place.

“Of course we would like to see something done quickly, and I’m sure Chris would appreciate it too, but we’re not there yet,” the executive told ESPN.

Urban Meyer loses arbitration against Jaguars

L’ère Urban Meyer (ex-HC) in Jacksonville lasted only 13 games in 2021. But with the technician’s dismissal, the question remained whether the team’s grievances were justified in parting ways with him. And it seems so, since On3.com reports that the former head coach lost his arbitration with the NFL against his former franchise.

Inappropriate conduct, violence on players, fines, and probably also catastrophic results prevailed in favor Jaguars save $36 million arrears following the decision. The conclusion of dismissal for misconduct was therefore upheld, even if Meyer had formally contested his departure.
