First of all, holster your comments if you quit watching the NFL. I get it. I’m asking the question because the NFL is running commercials about how many fans they have in Europe. Undoubtedly, preparing to expand across the pond. So…are the teams that play in Europe taxed at that Country’s tax rate?

I’m assuming it will be like the NBA,MLB They get taxed and paid for each game in that country/state. So they will make more money playing in Florida or Texas compared to New York or California. But they get paid weekly I believe
Also, some cities have some kind of a 'professional tax' or whatever it's called where players on visiting teams have to pay a tax to play there. It's all handled by the team behind the scenes presumably.
I remember watching an NHL game something like 15 years ago and my team was playing in Nashville and the tv guys were commenting on how one of the players playing on a minimum contract actually lost money by playing that game because of the tax.
Thank you🐸
