The Philadelphia Eagles will open their 2024 season by playing in Brazil. Their opponent has yet to be revealed, but the broadcasting platform was revealed on Tuesday.
NFL media executive vice president and chief operating officer Hans Schroeder announced that the Eagles' Week 1 game will be available to stream on Peacock. Additionally, fans in the Philadelphia market and those of the opposing team will get the game on their local NBC affiliates.
The Friday, Sept. 6, game will be one of five international games in the 2024 regular season and will be the first ever played in Brazil.
The Jacksonville Jaguars, Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Bears and Carolina Panthers will all host games in London this season.
As expected, some NFL fans weren't thrilled upon learning that the Eagles' international game will be streamed via Peacock. Some think it's burdensome that they need memberships to multiple platforms such as Peacock and Amazon to watch football games.

While the game is available to be streamed on Peacock, fans in Philadelphia will be able to watch the game on their local NBC station. Fans in the opposing team's city will also get the game available via their local NBC station.
