The Jaguars have made a multi-year commitment to stage a series of home games in London.

As part of the deal, they will stage a regular season game at Wembley for the next four years and will host the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, October 27, 2013.

In response to the growing support in the UK, the NFL has also taken the historic step of staging two regular-season games at Wembley next year, instead of the normal one.

In addition to the Jaguars-49ers clash, Minnesota Vikings will also host Pittsburgh Steelers at Wembley Stadium on September 29, 2013.

Tickets for the Jacksonville Jaguars v San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings v Pittsburgh Steelers will be released on November 22.
