The NFL has released the game schedule for the 2023 season. We’ll tell you all the important dates and show you the duels from week 1.
To kick things off on the night of September 8th, Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs meets the Detroit Lions at Arrowhead Stadium.
In the first Monday Night Game of the new season, the New York Jets will face the Buffalo Bills for their new star quarterback Aaron Rodgers, while the Green Bay Packers will be visiting the Chicago Bears on Sunday.
The Week 1 game between the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles can also be eagerly awaited: then quarterback icon Tom Brady is to be honored. He had declared his final retirement from football in the offseason.
An absolute treat comes Week 4 when Patrick Mahomes joins the Chiefs at Aaron Rodgers’ Jets. The 56th Super Bowl will be repeated in Week 11 on November 20th when the Kansas City Chiefs welcome the Philadelphia Eagles.
