Sao Paulo has heightened security for the first NFL game in South America, featuring the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers, scheduled for Friday at the Corinthians Arena. Players have expressed concerns about safety in the city, with wide receiver AJ Brown mentioning stringent 'Don't Do's', including not using cell phones in public, while cornerback Darius Slay voiced his reluctance to travel to Brazil, citing high crime rates. In response, the Sao Paulo government will deploy specialized police units to ensure player safety, including escorts from the airport to hotels and the stadium. Authorities will also conduct a security sweep at the venue prior to the match. Despite Brazil's reputation as the 17th most dangerous country by murder rate, local officials claim that Sao Paulo's homicide rate is lower than the national average, comparing it to California's rates. This game marks a historic moment as the NFL continues to address security in different international markets.
