Mark it down in ink. While these details had previously been reported, they had yet to be confirmed by the NFL. That changed during the second round of the draft.

The Dallas Cowboys will host the Baltimore Ravens in Brazil in Week 3.

The Baltimore Ravens will play the Dallas Cowboys in the 2026 NFL Rio Game. The matchup will take place on Sunday, Sept. 27 at the iconic Maracanã Stadium.

It is interesting to say the least that the NFL is having two teams play in Brazil and not at the beginning of the season when they can properly rest and recover. Obviously we have to see the weeks before and after to get full context for what this is going to look like from the Cowboys’ standpoint.

The NFL has yet to announce when the 2026 schedule will be released, but it stands to reason that we could be getting this announcement soon as the league clearly knows when some games are taking place.

How do you feel about this? Are you thinking about heading to Brazil?
