The Green Bay Packers will face the New York Giants at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London at 8:30 a.m. CT on Oct. 9, 2022. The NFL announced the dates, times and matchups of all the London games this season on Wednesday morning.
The showdown against the Giants will mark the first time the Packers have played in the NFL’s International Series. They were the last team to play an international game.
The game will count as a “home” game for the Packers, who would have otherwise had nine true home games in 2022. Instead, the Packers will play eight at Lambeau Field and one in London.
By process of elimination, Packers Wire correctly predicted the matchup would be against the Giants.
The Packers last faced the Giants in 2019, winning 31-13 at a snowy MetLife Stadium.
Last season, the Giants finished 4-13 under Joe Judge, who was fired and replaced by Brian Daboll.
The Packers and Giants are two of the iconic NFL franchises, adding to the intrigue of an international contest. The Giants haven’t played overseas since 2016.
The other games announced: The Minnesota Vikings will play the New Orleans Saints, the Jacksonville Jaguars will play the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Germany).
