Packers News: Green Bay will open its 2024 season in Brazil vs. the Eagles

On Tuesday, Green Bay Packers president Mark Murphy seemed to change his tone about the team potentially playing in Brazil for the season-opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. Previously, Murphy had stated that there were concerns that the team would be on equal footing with the Eagles, as the Packers would have to bus down to Milwaukee before taking the long flight to South America. During the club’s Tailgate Tour, though, Murphy claimed, “This is very important for the league. If we’re chosen, we’ll gladly go,” and mentioned that the Packers were one of the largest fanbases in Brazil.
