Seven international games down, one to go. That’s where things stand for the 2025 NFL season with the latest announcement of who will be playing on foreign soil next year. The Los Angeles Chargers were announced as hosts for the NFL’s second-ever trip to Brazil, making them the seventh team announced to host an international contest next season.

The Chargers will host the 2025 NFL Brazil Game in Week 1, with the matchup occurring on the Friday after the league’s kickoff game on Thursday. Last year’s NFL Brazil Game—in which the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Green Bay Packers 34–29—also took place on a Friday. The league will return to Corinthians Arena in São Paulo, with the Chargers’ opponent to be revealed at a later date.
