For the first time in franchise history, it looks like the Green Bay Packers will be playing a regular season game in London.
According to the Florida Times-Union, the Packers are expected to play the Jaguars at Wembley Stadium in 2016, although no formal announcement has been made yet.
Don't worry though Cheeseheads, Lambeau Field won't be losing a game. The Jaguars would be the home team in this regular season game.
The home game in London will be the final game of a four-year deal that the Jaguars agreed to before the 2013 season that called for the team to play one home per year in England through 2016.
According to the Times-Union, the team is expected to announce a second four-year deal later this year, meaning the Jaguars will be playing at least one home game in London in each season between 2017-20.
As for the Packers, once their game in England is official, Green Bay will become the 21st NFL team to play in London.
This is all good news for Aaron Rodgers, who will now be able to cross another thing off of his bucket list.
