The 2025 NFL International Games schedule up close
For this year’s International Games series, the NFL will feature seven matchups throughout the season in five countries. Before setting your alarm for an early kickoff, here’s how to watch all five international NFL games.
Watch Kansas City Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers in São Paulo
The Chiefs and Chargers get the first NFL International Game on the schedule this season, facing off in the Brazilian locale of São Paulo at Corinthians Arena.
The Chiefs are coming off a successful but disappointing season after losing to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl. While the U.S. knows the Chiefs’ work well, this game will be an opportunity to showcase their talents on a more global stage.
The Chargers are fresh off a playoff appearance and a double-digit-win season. They’ll be looking to start the season on a high note in São Paolo with a marquee win.
The Chiefs–Chargers game in Brazil will stream for free on YouTube.
Watch Minnesota Vikings vs. Pittsburgh Steelers in Dublin
The Vikings and Steelers get to showcase the NFL in Ireland for the first time ever with their matchup in Dublin.
This game is the first of two international matchups for the Vikings, who travel to London the following week. More on that later.
The Vikings had a phenomenal 2024 season, while the Steelers are looking to go further in the playoffs with a new starting quarterback. By the time this game rolls around, fans of each team will have a good idea of their respective trajectories in 2025.
To watch this game, you’ll need NFL Network. Check out our comprehensive channel guide to find out the best way to tune in.
Watch Minnesota Vikings vs. Cleveland Browns in London
The Vikings get a second international game, this one against a Browns team that’s in the middle of a rebuild. But fans in the U.S. and abroad should still get hyped for this game.
The Vikings finished 14–3 last season, while the Browns won only three games after making the playoffs in 2023. If Cleveland can find some of that 2023 energy early in the season, this game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium should be fun to watch.
Again, you’ll need NFL Network to catch this clash across the pond.
Watch Denver Broncos vs. New York Jets in London
The NFL London slate continues with a matchup between the Broncos and Jets—two AFC teams that finished third in their respective divisions in 2024.
But last year’s records won’t be on the minds of these teams when they meet at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. They’ll be playing for the right to say they prevailed in one of the premier sporting venues in the world.
Don’t forget that you’ll need NFL Network to watch this game. You can also stream it on NFL+.
Watch Los Angeles Rams vs. Jacksonville Jaguars in London
This game between the Rams and Jaguars has an interesting wrinkle in it: Afterwards, both teams are on a bye. That can only mean one thing.
Expect both teams to leave it all out on the field on October 19 with a week’s rest following immediately afterwards. Jacksonville has a lot to play for, considering their lower-than-subpar 2024 season. Meanwhile, the Chargers will want to continue their rise up the NFL standings.
Wembley Stadium is famous among the biggest musicians in the world—sellout crowds act as a validation of their power. Could the Rams and Jaguars add their NFL teams to that lore?
Fans who want to find out will need NFL Network to watch.
Watch Atlanta Falcons vs. Indianapolis Colts in Berlin
The penultimate international game of the NFL season features two teams that had mediocre 2024 campaigns.
The Falcons and Colts finished with identical 8–9 records last season and are figuring out how to get into that hallowed double-digit win category. Midway through the season, they’ll each get to do that in front of a German crowd in the country’s capital city.
Which team will be the first to knock down the other’s wall? Watch the game on NFL Network to see who prevails.
Watch Washington Commanders vs. Miami Dolphins in Madrid
The NFL closes out this year’s international game slate with a matchup between two teams with slightly different outlooks.
The Commanders surprised lots of people by winning 12 games in 2024. Meanwhile, the Dolphins are trying to get back to postseason contention after missing it last year.
Both sides will be doing it in Madrid, home to the oldest restaurant in the world and, like most European cities, oodles of famous art and rich history.
Turn on NFL Network to see which of these teams will create their own piece of football art in Spain.
Watch NFL International Games for free
The game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams on Friday, September 5, in São Paolo will stream on YouTube. But watching the NFL’s other 2025 international games for free this year will be trickier than usual since they’ll be cable or streaming exclusives.
Six of the seven games will air on NFL Network, which is available on most streaming TV services, and many of them offer new customers a free trial. They’ll also be available with an NFL+ subscription, which is the cheapest way to score 24/7 NFL Network access.
