There have been some rumors floating around online in recent days claiming the Jets would face the Denver Broncos in London, but now it’s say to say we know it’ll be happening.
NFL insider Adam Schefter has tweeted out several of this year’s international games with Aaron Glenn’s squad vs Broncos appearing on the schedule on October 12th at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
For Gang Green it means returning to the scene of former head coach Robert Saleh’s final game. It was after an embarrassing 23-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London that owner Woody Johnson decided he’d had enough of Saleh.
It will also mean the Jets get another shot to beat the Broncos whose defense smothered last year’s Jets team in a 10-9 stinker at home. This time the Jets will be the “home” team once again, but that won’t mean much in terms of home field advantage being that the game is being played over 3,000 miles from MetLife Stadium.
