A rematch from the Browns last London game against the Vikings
The Cleveland Browns will head back to London for the 2025 NFL season as the host/home team. The Browns last played an international game, also in London, back in 2017 when they matched up with the Minnesota Vikings. The Deshone Kizer and Isaiah Crowell-led Cleveland squad was no match for Case Keenum, Jerick McKinnon and Adam Thielen, falling 33-16.
With the NFL slowly releasing different important games before the big reveal Wednesday night, Browns fans are left to follow the rumors and wonder if Cleveland will face their first-ever rival in London. The Browns schedule is a difficult one, ripe for interesting prime-time options if the league thinks Cleveland will bounce back from a dreadful 2024 season.
Tuesday morning on The NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football” program, we learned that the Browns will face off with the Vikings once again:
For the first time in NFL history, a team will play two consecutive international games in two different countries: The #Vikings will face the #Browns in London at 9:30 a.m. ET on Oct. 5 on @nflnetwork. https://t.co/03w7K3VbAD

The rest of the schedule, unless Cleveland is a part of any other specially announced stand-alone games, will be announced Wednesday evening.
How do you feel about the Browns playing in London this year? Did they choose the right opponent? Are you planning to make the trip to see the matchup?
