This market will resolve to "Yes" if the National Football League (NFL) officially announces the addition of a new team — whether through league expansion or the relocation of an existing franchise — whose official home market is located outside of the United States (inclusive of its territories), on or before February 28, 2027, 11:59 PM ET (the end of the 2026-27 NFL season). Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". An official announcement will suffice for a "Yes" resolution, regardless of if or when the team actually begins play. The announcement must be made through the NFL's official channels or by an authorized NFL representative, such as the Commissioner or a vote of NFL ownership. The hosting of international regular-season or preseason games outside the United States (for example, in London, Munich, Mexico City, or São Paulo) does not qualify — the team's official home market must be located outside the United States. The primary resolution source will be official announcements from the NFL; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Recent NFL developments center on expanded international regular-season games rather than permanent franchise relocation. Commissioner Roger Goodell reaffirmed in mid-August 2026 that overseas teams remain inevitable but placed any such announcement well beyond a decade, aligning with ongoing focus on nine 2026 international contests and approval for a record 10 in 2027. League owners have prioritized scheduling adjustments, including Jaguars back-to-backs in London and new markets like Paris, while domestic expansion talk remains centered on 2028 timelines or later. With no active ownership bids, stadium commitments, or league votes for a non-U.S. club before early 2027, trader consensus reflects the multi-year runway required for international team formation amid current emphasis on game-day presence over full relocation.
