The NFL announced that the Philadelphia Eagles will play as the designated team in the first regular season game in Brazil, as part of the 2024 International Games. The game will be played on Friday, Sept. 6, the first time the NFL has played a game on Friday night of its opening weekend in more than 50 years (St. Louis Cardinals at Los Angeles Rams, Sept. 18, 1970).

The game will take place in São Paulo at the Corinthians Arena. The Eagles' opponent and kickoff time will be announced closer to the 2024 NFL schedule revealed.

“This landmark first international game in South America demonstrates the ongoing expansion of our global footprint," said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. “Playing on Friday night of Week 1 is a unique way to highlight our international growth and ambitions."

Five regular season games will be played as part of the 2024 NFL International Games, including the game in São Paulo.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London will host games featuring both the Chicago Bears and the Minnesota Vikings, while the Jacksonville Jaguars will return to Wembley Stadium, in what will be their 12th London game. Munich will host the Carolina Panthers in Allianz Arena.

With the game in South America, the NFL will have played a preseason or regular season game on five of the seven continents around the world.

Each team's opponent, along with the dates and kickoff times will be announced closer to when the 2024 schedule is revealed this spring.

With the expansion of the NFL schedule in 2021, up to four of the teams from the conference whose teams are eligible for a ninth regular-season home game are now designated to play a neutral-site international game each year.

Recently, NFL clubs voted to increase league-operated international games from four to up to eight games a season, beginning in 2025. New markets and host cities/stadiums for future seasons will be announced at later dates.
