“At some point, there will be NFL teams outside the USA,” Goodell said. “I have no doubt that this will happen one day.”

“There are definitely international cities that could host something like that,” Goodell said. “But we would like to see an NFL team in such a city first.”

These people running (ruining) college and professional sports have no real love for the game. It's all about the almighty dollar. There is no need to do this expansion.
Maybe there is some universe where global expansion can work within an NFL framework. However, what they have done to college football and harming conference regional identities seems likely irreparable.

Most likely, with best chance of success is Toronto and Vancouver.

But the NFL really wants London/Berlin/Madrid.
