Packers and Eagles to Play in Brazil

The NFL is set to make history with its first regular season game in South America, featuring the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles in São Paulo, Brazil, on Friday. This match is part of the NFL’s International Series, which reflects the league's growing popularity in Brazil, where it boasts 38 million fans. Both teams expressed excitement for the unique atmosphere and warmth from Brazilian fans. However, the Packers face logistical challenges as they will have to commute 1.5 to 2 hours to the stadium, while the Eagles enjoy a much shorter travel time. This weekend matchup will feature young quarterbacks Jordan Love and Jalen Hurts, each looking to lead their teams to victory after mixed preseason performances. The game will be broadcast on Peacock, marking an exciting start to the 2024 NFL season.
