The NFL is reportedly going to Australia, with a 2026 game between Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams set to be held in Melbourne.
According to a report in the Herald Sun in Australia, Melbourne will host three in-season games spread over several years. The first is said to be between the Rams and Eagles, and will be played in October 2026.
The report says it will be held at the MCG, a 100,000-seater multi-purpose stadium that is mainly used for cricket.
The Eagles are in next week’s Super Bowl in New Orleans against Kansas City Chiefs and lifted the trophy in 2018. The Rams, meanwhile, won the Super Bowl in 2022.
This season, the Rams lost to the Eagles in the playoffs in a gripping 28-22 scoreline in the snow in Philadelphia.
The NFL has been contacted for comment.
