NFL teams are eagerly awaiting the 2024 schedule release.

The road to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans will be mapped out this week when the NFL release the 2024 season schedule.

The Kansas City Chiefs saw off all-comers last season to win their third Super Bowl in four years, but the NFL’s other 31 teams will all be gunning for Patrick Mahomes and company when the season gets underway in September. 

We already know who will be playing in the first two games of the season - and there won’t be long until the other 270 regular season contests are unveiled. Here’s all you need to know.

When will the 2024 NFL schedule be released? Date, start time
