Passport Challenge for 49ers, Rams in Australia

As both teams prepare for the longest road trip in NFL history to Australia, they're asking potential practice squad players a question they've never had to ask before: "Do you have a passport?" General Manager John Lynch noted that while players already with the team have been preparing for international travel, ensuring new additions can get into Australia presents complications.

The 49ers' staff has worked overtime to handle the increased logistical demands, including navigating complicated visa processes. Lynch mentioned some families are rushing to get passports to players, adding to the complexity of preparing for this unprecedented international NFL game. playerbros.org
