While certain game details were leaked throughout the week, the full 22025 NFL schedule was announced on May 14. The Kansas City Chiefs will officially open their season against the Los Angeles Chargers.<\/p>\n

However, the Chiefs won\u2019t travel to SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Instead, they are heading to S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil, to face the Chargers at the Arena Corinthians on Friday, September 5. The Chiefs-Chargers showdown is a standalone primetime matchup that will air on YouTube.<\/p>\n

Chiefs reporter Matt McMullen posted, \u201cWhen the Chiefs take the field in Brazil, they\u2019ll become the first team in NFL history to play a regular-season game in four different countries outside of the US. KC will also become the first team to play a regular-season game in three countries outside of North America.\u201d<\/p>\n

While getting the big travel game out of the way early can be an advantage, one person not looking forward to the trip is Chiefs tight end\u00a0Travis Kelce<\/p>\n

Travis and his older brother, Jason Kelce, discussed playing in Brazil during the\u00a0May 14 episode of their \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast. While they recorded the show on Monday, Travis felt comfortable discussing the Week 1 game since it would be announced on Wednesday anyway.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s just something about getting close to the equator, I don\u2019t want to put on a football uniform. I\u2019ve been in Jacksonville in September, that\u2019s [expletive] miserable,\u201d Travis said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSao Paulo, is that by the water? I\u2019d rather it be dry than humid, I\u2019m a sweaty guy. If it is humid, I am going to be miserable. But we\u2019re going to find a way to get a win.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Jason replied, \u201cWell, prepare to be miserable. You\u2019re surrounded by the Amazon rainforest.\u201d The ESPN analyst mentioned how he wanted to support the\u00a0Philadelphia Eagles when they played at Arena Corinthians last season, noting how the field was \u201catrocious.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 35-year-old All-Pro was not thrilled about playing football in South America in early September. \u201cI am going to have to ask the equipment guys for a couple jerseys, maybe three pairs of pants. Maybe four cleats, I might just go through a pair,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
