The NFL is slowly revealing parts of the 2026 season, including many of the international games. The Eagles haven’t been named yet, but the host teams revealed for the three London games means that Philadelphia is still in the mix. The Jacksonville Jaguars will be the home team in two games — at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Wembley Stadium — and the Washington Commanders will play host in one at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Eagles are set to be the away team against both the Jaguars and Commanders in 2026, and the NFL might like the opportunity to showcase an NFC East matchup in front of the London crowd — they already announced an NFC West showdown between the 49ers and Rams for the league’s first-ever game in Australia.

If nothing else, the Eagles won’t be giving up a home game at Lincoln Financial Field in order to play in London, but games against Washington usually feel like a home game even when they aren’t. The NFL could also schedule a rematch from the Eagles vs. Jaguars London game from back in 2018 — under head coach Doug Pederson, the Eagles beat the Jaguars 24-18.

There are currently nine international games scheduled this season, including games in Australia [49ers vs. Rams], Brazil [Cowboys vs. TBD], France (Paris) [Saints vs. TBD], Germany, Mexico [49ers vs. TBD], Madrid, and the London. The rest of the 2026 NFL schedule is set to be released in mid-May, and we’ll have to wait for slow leaks until then.
