Cowboys emphasize business trip mentality as they practice in Rio ahead of their game vs Ravens

Dak Prescott said the Cowboys are treating the trip as a business visit while the NFL stages one of a record nine international games this season.

  • On Saturday, the Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens continued preparations in Rio de Janeiro for their Sunday NFL matchup after arriving Friday following roughly 10-hour flights.
  • The teams practiced at separate local soccer club training grounds in Rio, with the Cowboys using Flamengo's facilities about 26 miles west of Sugar Loaf mountain and the Ravens utilizing Botafogo's training ground.
  • Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer warned players the Brazil visit would feel different, stating, "We were very up front with the guys early on. You're not going to have the free time to do what you."
  • Previous NFL games in Brazil were held at the 48,000-seat NeoQuimica Arena in Sao Paulo, but Sunday's game in Rio brings the action to a new market where some tickets remain.
  • Quarterback Dak Prescott, playing in his first international game, noted, "This is a first for the majority of the team," as he focuses on the task ahead despite the unfamiliar setting.
