Washington Commanders Owner Slams NFL For Lost Revenue From Playing A ‘Home Game’ In London

Summary

Washington Commanders owner Josh Harris criticized the NFL for financial losses due to the team playing a “home game” in London. The NFL’s International Series assigns home teams based on conference schedules, but teams lose revenue from ticket sales and stadium-related income. The league no longer provides a stipend for this, and owners must accept the arrangement as part of long-term growth. Harris acknowledged the financial hit but supported the NFL’s international expansion plans.


Our Reading

The habit gets a new name.

Teams play “home games” abroad but lose money.
Owners complain but stay silent.
Revenue shifts to the league, not the team.
The NFL’s global plan is a long game.

Playing “home” games in London is just another way to lose money while pretending it’s a win.
