NFL Schedule Release: First games of regular season surface

If you’re getting the itch for NFL football, there is good and bad news.

Let’s start with the bad news: We still have 115 days until the 2024 regular season kicks off. But here’s the good news: We now have the teams that will be battling it out in the season opener.

The NFL announced on Monday morning that the regular season schedule will begin with a matchup between two MVPs. Patrick Mahomes and the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs will host Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, September 5th, at Arrowhead Stadium.

Kick-off is set for 5:20 PM PT on NBC.
