  twenty eight home games in Jacksonville to coincide with the reopening of

  its stadium following a one point four billion dollar renovation. The Jags

  were early adopters of the NFL's international push and began staging an

  play in Gainesville next year. Jacksonville's games at Wembley are separate from

  the NFL mandated international games. In that category, the Jaguars are set

  to play one game abroad next season. Lamping said he hopes that
