    The Philadelphia Eagles will clash with the Green Bay Packers to open the season in the first game ever played in South America. The two teams will travel to Sao Paulo, Brazil to open their seasons.

    On Thursday, two-time All-Pro receiver A.J. Brown spoke with the media and revealed that the team had been given a list of all the security measures they will undergo before, during and after the game.

    There were a whole bunch of ‘Don’t Do’s,’” Brown said. “So, I’m just trying to go down there and win a football game, and come back home.”

    Brown then revealed that players would be deterred from doing normal things they do when on the road in America.

    “A lot, honestly,” Brown said. “Things that we would normally do here, even something as simple as walking down the street with your phone in your hand, and stuff like that, which is kind of crazy.”

    According to reports, the Eagles have minimized the time they would spend in Brazil. They will be there late Wednesday night, and have a walk-through on Thursday before playing the game on Friday. The team is said to be leaving immediately following the game.

    The game is scheduled for Sept. 6 with kickoff set for 8:20 p.m. ET.
