More details about the London game -- including the venue and participating teams -- are expected to be confirmed during Super Bowl week (Jan. 29-Feb. 4) in South Florida.
The NFL staged its first regular-season game outside of the United States in 2005 when 103,467 people saw the Arizona Cardinals play the San Francisco 49ers in Mexico City on October 2 -- the largest crowd for a regular-season game in NFL history.
