The Dallas Cowboys will play the NFL's first international game in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

It's the Cowboys' first international game in 12 years. They will sacrifice one of their home games to travel south and become "South America's Team".

Here's what owner Jerry Jones said about the news:

“I have a lot of business in Brazil that I’ve had for 35 years. It’ll be great to have those Cowboys involved. We’re excited. We have a lot of fans on that continent, and it makes it good. I’m excited about going.”
