Even though the official release of the 2022 NFL schedule is still a week away, we definitely know one thing about where the Carolina Panthers are going—and it’s not abroad.
On Wednesday, the league officially announced its international serving of matchups for the upcoming season. Three of those will go down in London, England, one in Mexico City, Mexico and the other in Munich, Germany—which was of particular interest to the Panthers given their international marketing rights to the country.
But, they won’t have to break out the passports anytime soon, as Carolina wasn’t named to any of the games.
Instead, it’ll be the following clashes taking place on foreign soil:
- Oct. 2: Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London)
- Oct. 9: New York Giants vs. Green Bay Packers (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London)
- Oct. 30: Denver Broncos vs. Jacksonville Jaguars (Wembley Stadium, London)
- Nov. 13: Seattle Seahawks vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Allianz Arena, Munich)
- Nov. 21: San Francisco 49ers vs. Arizona Cardinals (Aztec Stadium, Mexico City)
Well, at least Panthers fans won’t have to wake up at 9:30 a.m. ET on a Sunday this season.
