The NFL has announced its three matchups for the 2015 slate of games to be played at Wembley Stadium in London.

A couple of familiar faces will return to London and a few new ones will arrive as well as the NFL has announced its three matchups to be played at Wembley Stadium in the 2015 regular season. While the game times are TBD, the dates and opponents are set and the teams made aware of their involvement.

More from Buffalo Bills

Outside of Miami Dolphins vs New York Jets on October 4, it looks like the NFL has opted for less heated matchups in favor of simply tossing NFL games to the UK. Even with the one divisional matchup, it’s hard to expect the Jets will be competitive enough to make that much of a game either.

This announcement runs contrary to earlier reports that there would be five games in London, but few teams stateside are likely crying about the loss of two games played overseas.

The Dolphins, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Kansas City Chiefs will play host and effectively lose a home game in the process. The Jaguars have an agreement in place so this is nothing new for them. They will ‘host’ the Buffalo Bills on October 25 while the Chiefs play the Detroit Lions  on November 1.

The Bills, meanwhile, are probably just happy that it’s not them losing a home game when they play outside of their stadium. Their fans have dealt with that plenty after their failed Toronto Series.

The Dallas Cowboys will play the Jaguars in the final London game of the 2014 season. The Lions played the Atlanta Falcons and the Dolphins played the Oakland Raiders earlier this season.
