When is NFL Week 1? Full schedule for opening week of 2024 regular season
View Date:2024-12-23 20:45:05
It's the week we've all been waiting for.
Real, meaningful NFL games will be played this week, and every week (except one) through Super Bowl 59, which will be played Feb 9, 2025 in New Orleans.
Week 1 starts with a bang as the defending two-time champion Kansas City Chiefs host fellow AFC – and Super Bowl – contenders, the Baltimore Ravens. There's football the very next day, as the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles battle in Brazil on Friday night in the first game of the NFL's 2024 international series.
The NFL's first Sunday is loaded with intriguing matchups, capped by an NFC wild-card rematch for Sunday Night Football as the Detroit Lions host the Los Angeles Rams. And the first Monday Night Football clash pits Aaron Rodgers in his return from a torn Achilles and the New York Jets against the San Francisco 49ers, defending champs of the NFC.
Here's what to know about Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season:
