PHOENIX – The Green Bay Packers are currently in discussions to play a 2019 preseason game against the Oakland Raiders in Canada, Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy confirmed on Tuesday.
"We're in discussions. This would be the Raiders' home game," Murphy said. "Still kind of up in the air. But it's a possibility that we would either play most likely in Saskatchewan or Winnipeg."
The Packers have previously played in two international preseason games. In 1997, the Packers defeated the Buffalo Bills in an exhibition game in Toronto's SkyDome in Canada. The following preseason, Green Bay won a matchup in overtime over the Kansas City Chiefs in the Tokyo Dome in Japan.
