Leading up to the release of the complete 2025 NFL schedule, the league has announced the seven International Games for next season.
The 2025 season will feature three International Series matchups in London, England, and one matchup in São Paulo (Brazil), Dublin (Ireland), Berlin (Germany), and Madrid (Spain).
In the first game of the 2025 International Series, the Los Angeles Chargers will, according to a report, host the Kansas City Chiefs on Friday, Sept. 5, 2025 (Week 1) at Corinthians Arena in São Paulo, Brazil. The Chargers-Chiefs contest will be streamed live by YouTube and will likely be available to view over-the-air (OTA) in the local markets of the two teams.
The first-ever regular-season NFL game in Ireland is slated for Sunday, Sept. 28, 2025, and it will feature the Pittsburgh Steelers hosting the Minnesota Vikings at Croke Park in Dublin. This game, and the five remaining International contests, will kickoff at 9:30am ET on the NFL Network (NFLN).
Minnesota will become the first NFL team to play games in different countries in back-to-back weeks when they face the host Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Oct. 5 (Week 5) at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, U.K. The following week on Sunday, Oct. 12 (Week 6), the New York Jets will play host to the Denver Broncos, also at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.

I wanted Rams-Jaguars to be the night game on Thanksgiving Day.
Sadly, the Jags have never played on Thanksgiving, the NFL wants to keep it that way.
The Lions and Cowboys each year on Thanksgiving should be hosting the home opponents with the longest active Thanksgiving droughts on their schedules, which in 2025 would be Cleveland and Kansas City, respectively.
Rams-Jaguars should be the night game as the Rams have the longest active Thanksgiving drought and the Jaguars the longest of their opponents.
Popular teams have plenty of opportunities to be on national TV each year, Thanksgiving needs to be the one slot where the teams outside Detroit and Dallas more or less rotate.
It’s only a matter of time before the NFL gets in trouble for continuing to prioritize money over fairness, both in regards to who plays on Thanksgiving and what stadiums get to host the Super Bowl.
Congratulations Z-Man you won to go see your beloved Ohio State Buckeyes Football home game August 31st & you will be surrounded by Texas Longhorn Fans.
Main thing I did it so Z-Man can respect CFB Fans from South & stop acting like Archie Bucker.
“It’s only a matter of time before the NFL gets in trouble for continuing to prioritize money over fairness, both in regards to who plays on Thanksgiving and what stadiums get to host the Super Bowl.”
In what world do you live in? The NFL doesn’t care one bit about fairness. If you think that the shield is going to schedule the Browns on Thanksgiving Day, I have a bridge to sell you.
As for you wanting the Jaguars to play on Thanksgiving Night, two words: Keep Dreaming
God Bless you Matt I buy your comments.
Excellent work!!!
Thank You Dan! God Bless you too!
Enjoy the 2025 NFL & College Football Seasons!!!
Greatly appreciate it Yes, I am a Football fan both NFL & College.
Matt, money causes more problems than it solves.
Eminem said it best about money: Forget money I don’t rap for dead presidents. (Paraphrased to remove a naughty word).
Not to mention, The Notorious BIG said “the more money [one] comes across, the more problems [they see]”.
You should run for politics Z-Man.
You are an excellent candidate for it.
Matt, the Panthers somehow got a Thanksgiving Night game in 2015, and that was before they knew Carolina would have a breakout 15-1 season. If the Jaguars ever get hot (like 14-3) they should get a shot at a Thanksgiving Night nomination.
Cowboys did host Panthers 10 years ago on Thanksgiving & remember Cowboys always play late afternoon on Thanksgiving.
@Matt, I wouldn’t be surprised if more AFC teams come to visit Dallas and Detroit on Thanksgiving, it’s been a common theme these past few years (Houston vs Detroit, 2020. Las Vegas vs Dallas, 2021. and Buffalo vs Detroit, 2022.) I would honestly rather watch Cleveland vs Dallas on Thanksgiving rather than a 0-11 Giants play against a 6-5 Dallas team.
@Dan Rakow, pretty much night if you’re an East Coast viewer.
Joseph, I live in Chicagoland area buddy & keep in mind NFC East played NFC South during 2015 NFL regular season.
