This page refreshes automatically each Tuesday morning. Schedule changes (flex scheduling, weather postponements, network reassignments) update during the same window.

When does the NFL release the regular-season schedule?

The full NFL regular-season schedule is typically released in the second week of May, after free agency and the draft have wrapped.

When does the preseason schedule come out?

NFL preseason matchups are typically announced in mid-April, ahead of the full regular-season schedule release.
