After retiring NFL Gamepass Domestic in 2022, the NFL decided to shutdown the international Gamepass service as well in 2023, rendering this add-on obsolete.
Outside of the States, DAZN is the new home for the NFL Gamepass service. You can watch the games with a DAZN account and an NFL Gamepass subscription.
The good news is that there is a DAZN add-on available for Kodi, so it is still possible to watch NFL games on our most favorite media center.
This addon supports NFL Game Pass, which is a merger of previous services called Game Pass Europe and Game Pass International. NFL Game Pass is available in these countries: https://support.nflgamepass.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360004691153
Before reading any further, please understand that this addon is unofficial and is not endorsed or supported by the NFL in any way. Not all features are supported (see below) and it should be forever regarded as a beta release. It may crash, spay your puppy, and/or cause your oven to not heat to 400°F properly.

NFL Game Pass is a service which allows those with subscriptions to watch NFL games. Live games, archives of old games, NFL TV shows, NFL Network, and coaches tape (22 man view) are available. Overall, it is a sweet service offered by the NFL for those of us who must have our American Football fix.
NFL Game Pass Europe was the original NFL Game Pass service supported by this addon. NFL Game Pass Europe later was merged with NFL Game Pass International and became NFL Game Pass.
Game Pass International was an older service providing access to NFL offerings outside of US and Europe. Game Pass International was merged with NFL Game Pass Europe and became NFL Game Pass.
The "original" NFL Game Pass was renamed to NFL Game Pass Domestic and was only available in US. The NFL retired NFL Game Pass Domestic in 2022 and replaced it with their own streaming solution called NFL+. This addon is not compatible with NFL+.
We used to maintain a list of features that were known working, broken, etc. With the split in services and the yearly breakage, the list was always out of date.
The new situation is: everything basically works. If not, there's an issue for it. If there's no issue, please open one, attach a log, and (if you want fame and fortune) create a PR with the fix.
Want a release to be named after your player/coach/defense of choice? Contribute to the project in some way (code, art, debugging, beer, brazen — yet effective — flattery, etc), and we'll gladly name a future release after them.
