The NFL will play five international games in 2022 and one of them will take place at FC Bayern Munich Stadium in Germany. In that contest, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are slated to serve as the home team.
But who will their opponent be?
It appears we now have an answer to that question with one report suggesting the Kansas City Chiefs will visit the Bucs. And given their connection to FC Bayern CEO and chairman Clark Hunt, that makes sense.
The Chiefs and Buccaneers are also among the 18 NFL teams selected to freely market their team across eight different countries. Unsurprisingly, both settled on Germany.
Although the NFL has not yet officially announced the game, that reveal could be coming as early as Monday. And the game itself is likely to take place in either October of November.
There may be no Tom Brady under center for the Bucs, but the game will command significant attention anyway.
