The “Road Warrior” Breakdown

The Ravens are the visiting team for the Week 3 international fixture in Rio de Janeiro, where they face the Dallas Cowboys at Maracana Stadium in Brazil. That single trip covers roughly 9,330 miles round trip and pushes Baltimore into the top half of NFL travel despite an otherwise compact regional slate.

The “Frequent Flyer” Matchups: Outside of the Brazil trip, Baltimore’s travel is mostly East Coast and Midwest. The AFC North divisional run (Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Cleveland) stays inside the eastern half of the country, and the full AFC South rotation adds short flights to Houston, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, and Tennessee.

The Global Factor: The Brazil game forces the Ravens through roughly four time zones round trip, with the “jet lag tax” likely to show up the week after the trip. Baltimore is one of two NFL teams traveling to Brazil in 2026, the other being the Cowboys as designated host.

What to Watch for Thursday: When the official schedule drops at 8 p.m. ET, the biggest variable for the Ravens will be whether the league schedules a bye immediately after the Week 3 Brazil game. A bye after a long-haul flight is the cleanest recovery setup. Confirmed dates and kickoff times will post to the official Baltimore Ravens schedule page as soon as the league locks them in.
