Are the Jacksonville Jaguars next in line for relocation to London?

Pay attention.

 

From the article:

 

<div>"PHOENIX -- That oughta do it. The NFL's two-decade blitz of stadium development largely ended this week with the granddaddy of them all: a nearly $1 billion gift from the tax coffers of Nevada to lure the Oakland Raiders to Las Vegas for the 2020 season.
 
With the Raiders' future settled, there are no more NFL stadium flashpoints on the near horizon and -- more importantly -- no obvious cities to be used as leverage against municipalities that refuse to provide public assistance. Perhaps the only team with a looming issue is the Buffalo Bills, who might soon push to replace 44-year-old New Era Stadium, but they have a lease through 2023 and are just three years removed from $130 million in taxpayer-funded renovations."
 
And, since mentioned for Buffalo above, our lease runs through 2030.
 

</div>
Rico, cmon man, this doesnt mean much. Sure there are no stadium flashpoints on the near horizon. 

The stadium issue is currently not an issue. But where will we be 5 years from now when NFL teams can start using London as leverage?

This is the whole point of my statements.

 

Breaking a lease is easy for owners to do. Especially if there are clauses in them. 

I know you are thinking with your heart. But can you honestly say that you guarantee the Jags to be in JAX for another 15 years?

You need to be skeptical about this London thing.
