The National Football League has announced its first-ever NFL London Games Ring of Honour ceremony, taking place during halftime festivities of the New York Jets-Minnesota Vikings game on Oct. 6 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
To celebrate the 17-year history of the NFL playing in the U.K., the league will honour two NFL Legends that have had an impact on the game: London-born, two-time Super Bowl champion Osi Umenyiora and five-time Pro Bowler Jared Allen.
The NFL London Games Ring of Honour ceremony recognizes those who have contributed to the growth and development of football in the U.K. and Ireland – both on- and off-the-field.
As part of the halftime ceremony, honourees will make brief remarks on-field and banners paying homage to their careers will be revealed. Banners will be displayed at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium throughout the 2024 London Games, and will return in the NFL seasons ahead.
