It looks like Steelers could play in Mexico City in 2025

PITTSBURGH — All signs currently point to the Pittsburgh Steelers playing a home game in Mexico City, most likely during the 2025 NFL season.

The Steelers have not played an international game since their 2013 loss to the Minnesota Vikings at Wembley Stadium in London. NFL teams are now required to give up one home game in an eight-year period in order to host a game in a different country.

For the Steelers, that will likely be in Mexico, where the team is one of nine NFL teams to hold international marketing rights. The Steelers might have been on the 2023 schedule in Mexico City, where the league has an arrangement with Estadio Azteca and Club América, the Mexican soccer team that operates the 87,000-seat venue.
