How to Watch NFL International Games on NFL Network with Sling

There are more NFL games in more places than ever in 2025. Here’s a look at the NFL International Games and how to watch with Sling.

Get your passports ready: The NFL will be exploring even more of the global map in 2025.

Seven NFL International Games will be played in five different countries in 2025, a record in both categories. For the first time ever, regular season games will take place in Ireland and Spain, in addition to England, Germany and Brazil. And the Minnesota Vikings are making history as the first team ever to play back-to-back international games in different countries.

Fri., Sept. 5 - Kansas City Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers - São Paulo, Brazil (8pm ET)

While this is the second year in a row the NFL has opened the season with a Week 1 Friday night game from Corinthians Stadium in São Paulo, it still makes history as “the first exclusive NFL game to be streamed live and for free in its entirety on YouTube,” according to the league. If possible, we’ll add a link to this post, where it will be the first-ever NFL game to be shown on this blog.

Sun., Sept. 28 - Minnesota Vikings vs. Pittsburgh Steelers - Dublin, Ireland (Croke Park)

While one might assume this game would feature a more Emerald-colored team like the Eagles or Jets, it actually makes sense that the NFL’s first regular season game in Ireland would include the Pittsburgh Steelers. That’s because late Pittsburgh Steelers owner Dan Rooney served as U.S. Ambassador to Ireland from 2009 to 2012 under President Obama.

Sun., Oct. 5 - Minnesota Vikings vs. Cleveland Browns - London, U.K. (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium)

The Vikings’ conquest of Europe continues the following week when they take on the Cleveland Browns from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London – “the only purpose-built NFL stadium outside of the U.S.,” according to the NFL. Interestingly, neither of Minnesota’s European matchups are designated as home games for the Vikings, so they’ll still play eight games in the friendly confines of U.S. Bank Stadium.

Sun., Oct. 12 - Denver Broncos vs. New York Jets - London, U.K. (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium)

Hotspur Stadium will run it back a week later when the New York Jets “host” the resurgent Denver Broncos. Last year, the Broncos finally ended the league’s second-longest playoff drought thanks to the play of rookie QB Bo Nix and Defensive Player of the Year Patrick Surtain Jr. The Jets are hoping for something similar in 2025: They’re still in possession of the longest active playoff dryspell.

Sun., Oct. 19 - Los Angeles Rams vs. Jacksonville Jaguars - London, U.K. (Wembley Stadium)

The new-look Jags head to their home-away-from-home to face the Rams in their annual London game. Along with their first year coach (Liam Coen) and new GM (James Gladstone), the Jaguars will be bringing another fresh face to London with them for the first time: Two-way sensation Travis Hunter, who the Jaguars moved up to select second overall in this year’s NFL Draft.

Sun., Nov. 9 - Atlanta Falcons vs. Indianapolis Colts - Berlin, Germany (Olympic Stadium)

Following five international games in the first seven weeks, there’s a bit of a break before the NFL plays its first regular season game in Berlin…at the stadium made famous in part by Jesse Owens, no less. Both teams enter the season with questions swirling around their QB rooms, so it will be interesting to see who’s under center when they square off in Week 10.

Sun., Nov. 16 - Washington Commanders vs. Miami Dolphins - Madrid, Spain (Santiago Bernabéu Stadium)

Speaking of famous European stadiums, they don’t get much bigger than Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, literally and figuratively. Not only is it home to one of Spain’s most iconic football clubs – Real Madrid – its capacity of 78,297 makes it the nation’s second-largest stadium. Spanish American Football fans (and Spanish-American football fans) should be in for a treat, as it marks the international debut of reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year, Commanders QB Jayden Daniels.
