The NFL is exploring the possibility of hosting the Super Bowl outside the United States for the first time, according to commissioner Roger Goodell. During a fan forum in London, Goodell acknowledged that while he had previously dismissed the idea, it is now a potential option as part of the league's ambitious international growth strategy. Goodell highlighted the potential for expanding the NFL's global presence, envisioning up to 16 games played outside the U.S. each year. He mentioned that Dublin is being considered as a likely host city for future events, following Madrid's anticipated role in 2025. This shift reflects the league's commitment to broadening its appeal and fan base beyond American borders.
