Attendance for Colts vs. Commanders is a reminder of what Tottenham Hotspur Stadium means to the NFL

The Indianapolis Colts defeated the Washington Commanders 30-13 in London, drawing an attendance of 60,907 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The crowd filled over 97 percent of the 62,850-capacity venue despite both teams entering the contest with 1-2 records. Washington quarterback Marcus Mariota exited the game in the first quarter with an injury.

Writer Gerard Crispin argues that the strong turnout highlights Tottenham Hotspur Stadium's unique drawing power for the NFL International Series. Built with a retractable grass pitch revealing a synthetic turf field underneath, the £1.2 billion stadium opened in 2019 and is scheduled to host the Philadelphia Eagles against the Jacksonville Jaguars next on October 11.
