The Packers aren’t shying away from rumors of opening the season in Brazil

The Green Bay Packers’ Tailgate Tour is underway, meaning that everyone’s favorite truth-teller — Packers president Mark Murphy — is currently on the road. Murphy is known for spilling the beans around a hot mic, notably telling a news crew at Wisconsin’s girls’ basketball tournament last season far too much about the Aaron Rodgers situation last March.

With the Rodgers drama behind the franchise, the new topic seems to be the Week 1 opener, possibly against the Philadelphia Eagles. At the NFL’s annual meetings last month, Murphy revealed that the Packers and Cleveland Browns were the two finalists selected to play the NFL’s opening game of the season in 2024 against the Eagles — who will be “hosting” the game in Brazil on a Friday.
