NFL Munich Game: German-American St. Brown in Spotlight

abendzeitung-muenchen.de (German) —

The NFL is holding its sixth regular-season game in Germany on Sunday in Munich, where Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown could become the first German player to star. The game pits the Lions against the New England Patriots at Allianz Arena. St. Brown, a 27-year-old German-American and one of the league's top pass catchers, called his first professional appearance in Germany "a dream come true." Detroit enters as a title contender, while New England was last year's Super Bowl finalist. The event includes pre-game performances of the US anthem by country singer Drew Baldridge and the German anthem by LaBrassBanda, with rock band Cage The Elephant playing at halftime.
