LONDON, ENGLAND--Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shad Khan and team president Mark Lamping are getting the word out about the Jaguars visit to Wembley Stadium to play the San Francisco Forty Niners on October 27th of 2013. Mr. Khan told SKY TV, "they are a great team with a great history so I look forward to it."
The Jaguars have agreed to play in London for the next four years, for Khan the goal is simple, "we want to cultivate fans there. We want fans to adopt us, love us, and support us." While some Jags fans are not happy about losing a home game for each of the next four years the plan for right now is one game a year, "I think right now that's a really huge question. I think until the NFL decides what makes sense for the Jaguars our commitment is four games in four years."
Khan took Jaguars kicker Josh Scobee with him on the trip. The Jaguars are on a four day break for the bye week and resume the season in Oakland with the Raiders.
