Cowboys-Ravens to play NFL's first Rio game in 2026

Published April 1, 2026 · Updated April 1, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

The NFL has confirmed that the Dallas Cowboys will face the Baltimore Ravens in the league's first-ever regular-season game in Rio de Janeiro during Week 3 of the 2026 season.

The matchup will take place at Maracanã Stadium, which famously hosted the 2014 FIFA World Cup final. Both teams have previous international experience, with the Cowboys last playing abroad in 2014 in London, while the Ravens have played in London twice, in 2017 and 2023.

This game will be one of nine international contests scheduled for the 2026 season, as the NFL continues its global expansion strategy.
