The NFL made its Brazilian debut during a Week 1 matchup at Corinthians Arena last season, which saw thePhiladelphia Eagles defeat the Green Bay Packers in Week 1.
“After a successful a memorable game in Brazil, we are delighted to confirm the league’s return to São Paulo with the Los Angeles Chargers as the designated team in what will be an incredible next chapter in the market,” said a spokesperson.

Brazil has long been a targeted market for the NFL, which said it had more than 36 million fans, the second-largest among international fan bases behind only Mexico. The league previously announced it would add Melbourne, Australia, to its international slate in 2026 at a date and time to be determined later.
