are headed to China! #Rams在中国
Sound like a PR move for the Rams and the NFL then found the article below!!!
The National Football League's quest to expand its global reach could result in a pair of teams playing in China next year.
According to The Athletic's Matt Barrows, NFL owners are expected to discuss the possibility of playing a regular-season game in China in 2020, with Beijing and Shanghai both being considered options as the host city.
The San Francisco 49ers would tentatively be the designated home team, with the Los Angeles Rams a possibility as the away team after having previously shown interest in the concept.
49ers general manager John Lynch said Monday, per Barrows:
"As a football guy, you're usually pretty protective. Like, 'Hey, let's make sure this is good for our team.' I think one thing we feel comfortable with is that (CEO) Jed (York) and (team president) Al (Guido) always keep that in mind, so we’re not going to do anything that's going to put us at a disadvantage. But if we can grow the game and also have a cool experience we'll make it work."
