Josh Allen calls for NFL scheduling changes following difficult London travel experience

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen recently described his team's 2023 trip to London for a game against the Jacksonville Jaguars as a nightmare. During a podcast appearance, Allen cited the physical toll of international travel and restricted recovery time as primary concerns for players participating in overseas games. The Bills lost that 2023 contest 25-20 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium despite Allen throwing for 359 yards and two touchdowns. While acknowledging the frustration of the travel logistics, Allen also emphasized that the team ultimately held responsibility for its performance on the field. As the NFL continues to increase its international presence to a record nine games across seven countries in 2026, the league has granted teams flexibility in their travel schedules. Players and organizations continue to adjust to early kickoff times and cross-continental travel requirements as international regular-season games become a consistent fixture of the league calendar.
