With not one, not two, but three (!) NFL games to be played next season in London, the NFL has announced the dates those international contests will be played.

They are as follows:

Week 4 on Sept. 28: Raiders vs. the Dolphins

Week 8 on Oct. 26: Falcons vs. Lions

Week 10 on Nov. 9: Cowboys vs. the Jaguars

All games will be played at Wembley Stadium.

"Our fans in the UK continue to demonstrate their passion for more football," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement last month. "Next year for the first time we will play three regular-season games in London. We have scheduled three attractive games with four teams playing in their first International Series game. The growing enthusiasm for the NFL internationally is exciting and we look forward to continuing to respond to this interest in our game." Follow Josh Katzowitz on Google+
