Rams to Open 2026 NFL Season in Australia with Seven Primetime Games
The Los Angeles Rams will kick off the 2026 NFL season with a historic regular-season game against the San Francisco 49ers at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Australia on September 10. This matchup, streamed on Netflix, marks the league's first-ever regular-season game in Australia and the Rams' sixth international appearance since 2012. The newly unveiled schedule features seven primetime games, highlighting the team's national prominence as SoFi Stadium prepares to host Super Bowl LXI in 2027. Key fixtures include a home opener against the New York Giants on Monday Night Football, a Thanksgiving Eve game against the Green Bay Packers on Netflix, and a high-profile rematch with the Kansas City Chiefs on Amazon Prime Video. The season also includes significant rivalries, such as the first regular-season home game against co-tenants Los Angeles Chargers and a Week 18 finale against the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks. The Rams will appear across six different broadcast partners, including CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN, Amazon, and Netflix, underscoring their extensive media coverage throughout the fall.
