Hey Detroit Lions fans, get ready to learn German buddy, the Lions are highly likely to be there in 2025
The NFL announced on Wednesday morning that there will be an NFL game in Berlin, Germany for the time ever during the 2025 season.

The NFL announced on Wednesday morning that there will be an NFL game in Berlin, Germany for the time ever during the 2025 season. There's a better-than-good chance that the Detroit Lions will be one of the teams playing in that game for multiple reasons.
The first one is that back in March the Lions were awarded international marketing rights to four new countries. Germany was one of them. The Lions are one of just 10 teams that have those rights.
The other teams are the Falcons, Panthers, Colts, Chiefs, Patriots, Giants, Steelers, Seahawks and Bucs. The NFC South is the one you really want to pay attention to. The Lions are slated to play an NFC South team in 2025, but that team hasn't been picked and the location of that game hasn't either.

The other thing is that the Lions have been kind of teasing this all year. They have a new German Instagram page where they have had a social media team going through Germany and talking Lions football.
The last part is Amon-Ra St. Brown. That absolutely matters to this whole thing.

He can speak the language and is one of the biggest stars in the league. He can do all the media stuff and really help pump this thing up.
We're not going to find out for a while now, but if I were you, I'd start looking at airfare and hotel rates in Berlin.
