In a historic NFL matchup, the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Green Bay Packers 34-29 in the league's first game in South America, held in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Saquon Barkley, who joined the Eagles as a free agent, made a significant impact by scoring three touchdowns, becoming only the second player in Eagles history to achieve this feat in his debut. Jalen Hurts, now a high-profile quarterback following a $255 million extension, showcased his skills alongside Barkley and his top wide receivers. The game marked an important moment for the NFL's international expansion strategy, adding to its previous games held in Europe and other regions. As the Eagles aim to rebound from last season's struggles, the Packers are looking to build on their recent successes with quarterback Jordan Love, who has also secured a lucrative contract extension.
