Jacksonville Jaguars v Chicago Bears (14:30 BST)
Chicago Bears team president Kevin Warren speaking to BBC Sport: “There’s so many similarities between the history and tradition of London and the Chicago Bears, which is a founding franchise of the NFL, so it’s exciting to be here.
“As you walk down the street you see people with Bears gear on, and when someone says ‘Bear Down’, it’s special. It shows that the world we live in is small and we’re trying to make it even smaller, to show that we have an international brand.
“We’re trying to grow internationally and we’ve been doing lots of work in the UK, and Spain also, through flag football and youth camps. It’s also great to provide everyone in our organisation – our fans, players, coaches, staff, alumni – a chance to travel abroad.
“I think the UK fans will love watching Caleb Williams and DJ Moore, and
being able to sing our Bear Down fight song, which is absolutely awesome. I hope
we hear that a lot today.”
