Dallas and Baltimore remain set to meet in Rio de Janeiro next Sunday, eight days from now, with the Cowboys designated as the home team and the Ravens as the road team. Their status for the game has not changed, and the matchup is still planned for Maracanã Stadium.

The field has drawn criticism from Agustín Rossi, a Flamengo goalkeeper. Rossi said the surface contains bumps and said he hopes conditions improve before the football game. Whether the field will be better by kickoff remains uncertain.

Before the trip, Dallas is scheduled to play Washington on Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET. Baltimore is set to face New Orleans that day at 1 p.m. ET. Sports.yahoo.com reported the information Sept. 19, 2026.
