Eagles vs Jaguars London 2026 kickoff time and how to watch

The Eagles vs Jaguars London 2026 kickoff time is locked in at 9:30 a.m. ET. Philadelphia and Jacksonville meet at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, Oct. 11, 2026, with the ball set to go up at 9:30 a.m. ET (2:30 p.m. BST), according to NFL.com, which announced the game details about six weeks ago. The Week 5 matchup opens a two-game stretch of home games for Jacksonville in the United Kingdom this month. NFL Network carries the broadcast nationally in the U.S., per the Jaguars' official schedule release.

What time is Eagles vs Jaguars in London comes down to 9:30 a.m. Eastern, early enough that West Coast fans need an alarm set well before sunrise. What follows covers the Eagles Jaguars London game time across every U.S. zone, what's confirmed for watching from home, and why Jacksonville is listed as the home team for a game played thousands of miles from its own stadium.

Time zone conversions for the Eagles Jaguars London game time

Kickoff is confirmed for 9:30 a.m. ET on Oct. 11, reported independently by NFL.com and the Jaguars' schedule announcement. NBC Sports Philadelphia reported the same start time earlier this year, when the league first announced the matchup.

That 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff converts to 8:30 a.m. Central, 7:30 a.m. Mountain and 6:30 a.m. Pacific. In London, the same whistle falls at 2:30 p.m. British Summer Time, per NFL.com.

This marks the Eagles' first appearance at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which hosted its first NFL game in October 2019 and holds more than 62,000 fans, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia. The game is part of the NFL's 2026 International Series, which also sends teams to Munich, Madrid, Paris, Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro and Melbourne this season, per the league's schedule release.

Jacksonville's UK trip spans two separate games a week apart, not one extended stay:

Date Matchup Venue Kickoff Broadcast Oct. 11 (Week 5) Eagles at Jaguars Tottenham Hotspur Stadium 9:30 a.m. ET / 2:30 p.m. BST NFL Network Oct. 18 (Week 6) Texans at Jaguars Wembley Stadium 9:30 a.m. ET NFL Network

Both dates and kickoff times come from the Jaguars' official schedule release, which also lists the Eagles entering the series at 11-6 and first in the NFC East based on the 2025 season, and the Texans at 12-5 and second in the AFC South.

How to watch the Philadelphia Eagles vs Jacksonville Jaguars London game

NFL Network is confirmed as the national broadcaster for the Philadelphia Eagles vs Jacksonville Jaguars London game, per both the Jaguars' official release and NBC Sports Philadelphia.

The schedule release names NFL Network as the national broadcaster but doesn't list a separate streaming option. Check NFL.com and provider listings closer to kickoff for current availability.

UK viewers have one confirmed broadcast detail beyond the game itself. NFL.com reports Ayra Starr's full halftime performance will air live and free in the UK on 5, with simulcast coverage on Sky Sports. That confirmation covers the halftime show specifically and doesn't address which outlet carries the full game live in the UK.

The halftime slot fits into a larger rollout this season. NFL.com reports the Eagles-Jaguars performance is one of a record seven halftime shows staged across the 2026 International Series, spanning seven countries and four continents as the league plays its most international slate yet.

Ticket information for the 2026 NFL London Games is listed at nfl.com/london, according to NFL.com. Fans planning to attend in person should search that page directly rather than following a secondhand link, since ticket inventory and pricing change closer to game day.

Why Jacksonville is the home team

Jacksonville is the designated home team for the Oct. 11 game, which puts Philadelphia on the road. That arrangement repeats a week later when the Jaguars host the Texans at Wembley Stadium, again at 9:30 a.m. ET on NFL Network, according to the Jaguars' schedule release.

NBC Sports Philadelphia confirmed the Eagles will be the road team for the Oct. 11 matchup. The outlet quoted Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie saying the team was "openly available to be an away team" for international games, a comment he made at the NFL owners meetings earlier this year.

The Oct. 11 game is the Eagles' first international trip since they served as the home team against the Green Bay Packers in São Paulo, Brazil, during the opening game of the 2024 season, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia. That contest was the first NFL game ever played in South America, per the same report.

Eagles' last trip to London

Philadelphia and Jacksonville have shared a London field before. The Eagles beat the Jaguars 24-18 at Wembley Stadium in 2018, under then-head coach Doug Pederson, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia. Carson Wentz threw for 286 yards and three touchdowns that day, with Jordan Matthews leading the receivers.

That win came at Wembley. This year's rematch shifts the series to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, a venue the Eagles have never played.

The NFL noted in its late-summer announcement that 62 regular-season games had been played outside the United States to that point, with London, Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Madrid, Dublin, São Paulo, Mexico City and Toronto all having hosted games, according to NFL.com. The two October London games will add to that total once played.

What to check before kickoff

The confirmed details are simple: 9:30 a.m. ET, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, NFL Network. Streaming specifics beyond that haven't been published yet, so check NFL.com or a provider's app listing as Oct. 11 approaches.

UK viewers can count on Ayra Starr's halftime set airing free on 5 and on Sky Sports. Jacksonville's second London date, against Houston at Wembley on Oct. 18, follows one week after the Eagles head home.
