As the NFL Owners Meeting continues, we got some clarity on who the Philadelphia Eagles will face in their Week 1 matchup down in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
While speaking with local reporters, Green Bay Packers President Mark Murphy said it’s between his Packers and the Cleveland Browns. The NFL is expected to make a formal announcement next week.

The NFL also announced that the Brazil game will be streamed exclusively on Peacock, which is just the worst. But the good news is, for Eagles fans in the northeast the game will still be televised like normal on NBC.
When I originally wrote about the team’s potential opponent when the Brazil game was first announced, I picked the Packers as my favorite to land it. Hopefully that ends up being the pick.
