- Like it or not, NFL games kicking off at 9:30 AM Eastern time is here to stay. And the League is determined to go international. The NFL today announcing a slate of five games abroad, including the first ever in Germany. Josh Schafer here to break down the story, when and where we can see these games, and most importantly, who, Tom Brady.

JOSH SCHAFER: That's right, Dave. They're going to have Tom Brady over there. So we've got five games announced today internationally. And the League's going to have three of those games in London. And one of those games is going to be broadcast exclusively on ESPN+ for the first time. There's going to be another game in Mexico City. And the big one, the NFL's first game in Germany.

So Tom Brady and the Bucs will be playing the Seattle Seahawks on November 13 at Allianz Arena, the home of the renowned soccer club Bayern Munich. This is really kind of an interesting story to follow, guys, because as we've been watching, the NFL's trying to expand further into these international markets with 26 international markets they created earlier this year.

And the big thing is having Brady over there, right. When you have Brady over there, you can attract a different kind of audience and really get people into that player driven thing. That's what the NFL is going for because you're not going to go to a game without any merch, right. So now you can engage with those international fans. They're going to buy a Brady jersey, buy a Brady shirt. Then you're making money off them. That's good for the NFL, of course.
