For American football fans in the US, a VPN, like NordVPN, primarily solves region-locking restrictions by bypassing local TV blackouts. By connecting to a server in a different city or country, fans can watch out-of-market matchups or access cheaper, comprehensive international streaming packages like DAZN's NFL Game Pass, which includes every game live or on-demand.
Additionally, VPN encryption prevents Internet Service Providers from throttling your bandwidth during high-traffic broadcasts, secures your personal data on public Wi-Fi networks, and allows you to access domestic streaming subscriptions like YouTube TV while traveling abroad.

Manager
- Shane Steichen
- Jesse Minter
Both teams enter the regular season with remarkably clean injury reports, though both sides have a few key players recovering from long-term injuries or managing minor strains.
Indianapolis Colts Team News
The Colts boast a 100% attendance record on their final roster for game-week training. The major headline is the official return of quarterback Daniel Jones, who is fully healthy and locked in as QB1 after suffering a season-ending Achilles injury in late 2025.
However, four players were limited in initial practice sessions:
- Alec Pierce (WR) - Pierce is working his way back from pre-training camp heel surgery. Head coach Shane Steichen stated he is on track to play but might be placed on a pitch count.
- A.J. Haulcy (S) - The rookie third-round pick is listed as the starting strong safety but is nursing an ankle injury. If he cannot start, Hunter Wohler will step in.
- Drew Ogletree (TE) - Limited with a neck injury.
- Sedrick Van Pran-Granger (C) - Limited due to an illness. He is slated to back up Tanor Bortolini.
Baltimore Ravens Team News
The Ravens are stepping into a brand-new era under rookie head coach Jesse Minter, following the departure of long-time coach John Harbaugh.
Defensively, they have added pass rusher Trey Hendrickson, while their offense remains spearheaded by Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry.
Every player on the Ravens' 53-man roster practiced, but four notable stars were restricted:
- Zay Flowers (WR) - Flowers is dealing with a minor hamstring strain suffered in late August. He told reporters he feels great and expects to be fully active by Sunday.
- Nnamdi Madubuike (DT) - The standout defensive tackle is limited with a neck injury as he finishes recovering from a 2025 season-ending knock.
- Devontez Walker (WR) - Limited with a groin injury. If he sits out, rookie Ja'Kobi Lane will slide into the WR3 position.
- Teddye Buchanan (ILB) - Limited with a knee injury.
