Can’t make it to Brazil? No worries—your couch is the next best thing. The game will be broadcast nationally on Peacock (yes, the streaming service with the bird logo) and also on local NBC affiliates. So you can watch Patrick Mahomes throw a no-look pass while you’re wearing your lucky Chiefs pajamas at 7:15 PM ET. Glorious.
If you’re a cord-cutter, Peacock is your best bet. And if you’re a party person, invite your friends over, make some Brazilian snacks (pão de queijo, anyone?), and turn it into a mini-Carnival. Just don’t try to samba dance while explaining the offside rule. It’s a recipe for disaster.
Kansas City Chiefs to Take on Los Angeles Chargers in São Paulo for NFL
A Few Fun Facts to Impress Your Friends
Did you know this will be the first NFL regular-season game held in South America? That’s right—the Chiefs are making history while probably sweating through their jerseys. Also, the game is officially called “NFL Brazil Game 2026,” which sounds way more official than “The Time Taylor Swift’s Boyfriend Played in the Jungle.”
And here’s a spicy one: the Chiefs will be the designated “home” team, even though they’re 5,000 miles from Kansas City. That means they get to wear their red jerseys, call the coin toss, and pretend the crowd is cheering for them. Spoiler: the crowd might be torn—Brazilians love underdogs, but they also love a good spectacle. Mahomes flashing that smile will win them over. Count on it.
