The Eagles are going international, again, per reports.

On Saturday, news broke that the NFL is eyeing the Eagles to head to Melbourne, Australia to play the Rams in two years.

Both teams have been granted access to market and expand their fanbases in the country.

Of course, the expectation is that the Eagles will have perhaps the continent’s best player returning with them in that game as the 6’8″, 365 lb offensive tackle was a project pick of the Birds who has finally begun to earn league-wide recognition this season.

He’s arguable the leagues best OL right now.

The Eagles also have Laekin Vakalahi as an OL project that’s using an international exemption spot to stick with the team. This is his first season with the team, so its not shocking he’s seen no playing time. Whether the team thinks they can continue his development moving forward will determine if he’s with the team in 2026, but with the exemption available it’s hard to imagine he wouldn’t return for next season.

The Eagles began this season with a “home game” in Brazil where they beat the Green Bay Packers.
