NFL Schedule Release News: 2025 NFL Schedule Released: Dates, Times, Channels Announced
The NFL announced its 18-week, 272-game regular-season schedule for 2025, which kicks off on Thursday night, September 4, in Philadelphia and concludes with 16 division games in Week 18 – two on Saturday, January 3, and 14 on Sunday, January 4.
The 2025 NFL schedule, powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), will feature each team playing 17 regular-season games and three preseason games for the fifth consecutive year. The 17th game will feature teams from opposing conferences that finished in the same standing within their respective divisions the previous season. The AFC will be the home conference for the 17th game in 2025. For how opponents were determined for the 2025 season, click here.
The NFL uses AWS to power its schedule-making process. There are approximately a quadrillion possible schedule combinations each NFL season and over 26,000 factors to take into consideration such as stadium availability, travel requirements, primetime games, competitive fairness and division rivalries. The NFL uses AWS to run high performance computing workloads to find the best possible schedule each year. For more information, click here.
The NFL’s 106th season begins with the league’s annual primetime kickoff game, as the defending Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles host the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field on Thursday, September 4 (8:20 p.m. ET, NBC).
On Friday, September 5 (8 p.m. ET, YouTube/YouTube TV), the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Chargers will meet at Corinthians Arena in São Paulo, Brazil, the second-ever regular-season NFL game to be played in South America. It will mark the first NFL game to be streamed live and for free in its entirety exclusively on YouTube.
Week 1 continues on Sunday, September 7, with three divisional games in the 1 p.m. ET window, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers visit the Atlanta Falcons, the Cincinnati Bengals visit the Cleveland Browns and the Washington Commanders host the New York Giants. Six of the eight teams participating in the late window on Kickoff Weekend presented by YouTube TV won at least 10 games last season. On FOX at 4:05 p.m. ET, Denver hosts Tennessee while San Francisco visits Seattle, and on CBS at 4:25 p.m. ET, Detroit visits Green Bay and the Los Angeles Rams host Houston.
Later that day, NBC’s Sunday Night Football begins with Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens visiting Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills (8:20 p.m. ET), in a rematch of last season’s AFC Divisional round. NBC will televise one game each Sunday night in Weeks 1-17 as well as feature Cincinnati at Baltimore (8:20 p.m. ET) on Thanksgiving night.
Kickoff Weekend concludes on Monday, September 8, with ESPN/ABC’s Monday Night Football, featuring the Minnesota Vikings visiting the Chicago Bears (8:15 p.m. ET). YouTube TV is the presenting sponsor of Kickoff Weekend, inclusive of the entire Thursday through Monday slate.
ESPN will televise one game each Monday night in Weeks 1-17 and will be simulcast on ABC in Weeks 1-3, 5, 7-11 and 14. In Weeks 2 and 7, there will be two Monday night games with broadcasts at 7 p.m. ET and 10 p.m. ET. In Weeks 4 and 6, there will be two Monday night games with broadcasts at 7:15 p.m. ET on ESPN and 8:15 p.m. ET on ABC.
Additionally, ESPN/ABC will air two games with playoff implications on the Saturday of Week 18, January 3, at 4:30 p.m. ET and 8 p.m. ET. These games will be selected following the conclusion of Week 17. There will be no Monday night game on the final regular-season weekend (Week 18) to provide more flexibility for the scheduling of the opening weekend of the NFL playoffs.
Thursday Night Football will air exclusively on Prime Video, kicking off its slate in Week 2 with Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers hosting Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders (8:15 p.m. ET). Prime Video will broadcast 15 Thursday Night Football games between Weeks 2-17 (excluding Thanksgiving night and including Christmas) and exclusively stream the third annual NFL Black Friday game when the Philadelphia Eagles host the Chicago Bears in Week 13 (3 p.m. ET).
For the second consecutive season, Netflix will stream two NFL games on Christmas Day in Week 17, as the Dallas Cowboys visit the Washington Commanders (1 p.m. ET) and the Minnesota Vikings host the Detroit Lions (4:30 p.m. ET). Additionally, Netflix will stream at least one holiday game in 2026

Note from ZennieReport.com, Zennie62 YouTube, and ZennieReport.com: this ZennieReport video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. This is what we call “The Third Wave of Media”.
The uploaded video is from a vlogger with the Zennie62 on YouTube Partner Channel, then uploaded to and formatted automatically at the ZennieReport.com Blog site and Zennie62Media -created and owned social media pages. The overall objective is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours. Now, news is reported with a smartphone: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, thus less chance for ZennieReport.com, Zennie62 YouTube vloggers to be robbed.
The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
