Tampa Bay, along with the Carolina Panthers, Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots received the rights for games in Germany. The agreement awarded to each team allows them the exclusive opportunity to market, build fan engagement and other initiatives to grow their fan base outside of the United States.
