NFL London game: Eagles face Jaguars in Sunday breakfast kickoff

Sunday morning in London is breakfast time. In the United States it is something else entirely: an NFL kickoff before most fans have finished their first coffee. The Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars meet at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, October 11, for the second NFL London game of the 2026 season. Kickoff is set for 9:30 a.m. ET, which is 2:30 p.m. local time in London, and the game airs on NFL Network in the United States with streaming on NFL+. Jacksonville is the designated home team and arrives in the better shape: the Jaguars are 3-1 after winning their last two games and sit atop the AFC South, according to DraftKings Network. The Eagles, by contrast, are 2-2 after dropping two straight.

The quarterback matchup is the main draw in Sunday's NFL London game. Jalen Hurts leads Philadelphia against Trevor Lawrence and Jacksonville. The Eagles built a 10-point lead against the Los Angeles Rams last week and gave it away, losing 24-20 after conceding 14 unanswered points in the second half, DraftKings Network reported. Jacksonville's Week 4 win was tighter: a 22-17 road victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in which the Jaguars led throughout and came up with key defensive stops late. The Jaguars have now won two in a row, and this trip begins a two-week stay in London that will test how well the roster handles the Atlantic swing. The matchup also brings together some of the league's most visible young talent, with Hurts, DeVonta Smith and Cooper DeJean on one side and Lawrence, Parker Washington and Travis Hunter on the other, DAZN noted.

How to watch in the US and UK

In the United States the game is on NFL Network nationally, with streaming available through NFL+. Local markets get extra options: viewers in Philadelphia can watch on 6abc, and viewers in Jacksonville can watch on FOX30, JustJared reported. For viewers in the UK and other markets with NFL Game Pass, DAZN carries the game live. The early window is part of the bargain with the NFL London game format: American fans set alarms, and the stadium gets a mid-afternoon atmosphere that tends to run louder than a typical neutral-site crowd.

The broadcast booth carries its own storyline. Dave Pasch handles play-by-play with Kurt Warner and Jason Kelce on analysis and Molly McGrath reporting from the sidelines, according to JustJared. Kelce, the former Eagles center, is back in the booth for a second consecutive international assignment after calling last week's NFL London game, and this time the matchup puts him on the call for his old team. It is a notable twist for a broadcast crew working a game that kicks off before sunrise on the West Coast.

Jacksonville's second home

This game is only the first half of Jacksonville's London stay. The Jaguars face the Houston Texans at Wembley Stadium on October 18, the team announced when the league revealed its international schedule. Jacksonville has made a tradition of the trip: in 2023 the Jaguars became the first NFL team to play back-to-back games in London, beating the Falcons at Wembley and the Bills at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Team owner Shad Khan said London remains a favorite stop for the players and fans, and that the club looked forward to returning as the defending AFC South champions. The visit marks Jacksonville's twelfth trip to Wembley and its fourth game at Tottenham, the team said. For Jacksonville, the annual NFL London game has become a home away from home.

The Eagles are playing their first international game of the season, DraftKings Network noted, and they arrive needing it to stop the slide. A loss in London would drop Philadelphia below .500 and hand Jacksonville a third straight win. For the league, this is the second of three NFL London games on the 2026 international schedule, according to DAZN, another marker of how firmly the overseas slate has settled into the calendar. For everyone else, it is simpler than that: set an alarm, make coffee, and watch football from across the Atlantic.
