The Las Vegas Raiders open their 2023 NFL season on the road.

With nine home and eight away games, the Raiders will spend more time at Allegiant Stadium in 2023, but won’t see their home crowd until Week 3 when the Pittsburgh Steelers visit Las Vegas. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Raiders will travel 21,546 miles next season, 13th highest in the NFL.

In total, the team has six primetime games, two on Sunday night, two on Monday night, one Thursday Night Football game, and a Christmas day game.

The preseason will see the Raiders face off against the San Francisco 49ers, Los Angeles Chargers and Dallas Cowboys. Dates for the preseason games will be released at a later time.
