Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has stated he would welcome the opportunity to participate in the NFL's first regular-season game in Tokyo, according to a report from the Cincinnati Enquirer. The NFL has been expanding its international series in recent years, with games held in London, Munich, and Mexico City. Tokyo would represent a new frontier for the league's global growth strategy.
Burrow, who has led the Bengals to multiple playoff appearances since being drafted first overall in 2020, joins a growing list of NFL stars open to playing internationally. The league has not yet announced a formal timeline for a Tokyo game, but Commissioner Roger Goodell has previously indicated interest in bringing NFL games to Japan.
