Friday night’s Week 1 meeting between the Green Bay Packers and the Philadelphia Eagles represents a series of “firsts” for the NFL. The meeting, set to take place in São Paulo, Brazil, will be the first regular season game in South America in NFL history. In addition, with the game scheduled for Friday night, it will be the first Week 1 game on a Friday since 1970.
However, NFL fans looking to tune into the game might be wondering how they can watch.
Keeping with a recent trend in the NFL, the game will be streamed exclusively on Peacock, NBC’s streaming service. Peacock has aired several exclusive games in recent years, including last season’s Wild Card game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Miami Dolphins.

- Who: Philadelphia Eagles versus Green Bay Packers
- When: Friday, September 6, 2024
