The Tennessee Titans‘ schedule for the 2025 NFL season will be announced on Wednesday, giving fans the guide map to how rookie quarterback Cam Ward will have to navigate his first season as a pro.
After finishing 3-14 in 2024 and earning the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Titans will earn the benefit of playing a last-place schedule in 2025, meaning they’ll face one of the least difficult strengths of schedule in the NFL. Ward, coach Brian Callahan and company will face opponents from the AFC South, AFC West and NFC West as well as single games against New England, New Orleans and Cleveland.
While the NFL will announce the full schedule for 2025 on Wednesday, expect individual games to be announced ahead of time and leaks to start filtering across the internet throughout the week, especially throughout the day Wednesday.
International games were announced on Tuesday.
Follow along below for live updates and the latest Titans and league news ahead of the NFL schedule release.

Based on leaks across the internet and social media, the folks at ProGrid seem to think they’ve got the entire 2025 NFL schedule figured out. This schedule would have the Titans playing zero primetime games and starting the year with a brutal stretch that includes matchups against the Broncos, Rams, Texans and Cardinals in the first five weeks. The bye would come in the second week of November.

One hour left before schedule announcements become official and there are plenty of rumored Titans leaks to examine. Most notably, a couple of leaks of the Patriots’ schedule has the Titans welcoming former coach Mike Vrabel back to town in Week 7 for a mid-season showdown. We’ll see the full schedule be released here very soon.
A reported leak of the Kansas City Chiefs’ schedule has the Titans hosting Patrick Mahomes and company in Week 16, albeit on an unknown day and time. Given the fact that Week 16 will make up the games the week before Christmas and the Chiefs are booked to play on Christmas, this game could end up being pushed on the earlier side.
For the second straight year, it would appear that the Titans aren’t going to play a Thursday Night game on Amazon Prime Video. Per a leak to OzzyNFL, the Titans are not included in the TNF schedule for 2025. That means the Titans’ only options for primetime are Sunday night and Monday night.

The OzzyNFL account on social media is reporting the Titans will visit the San Francisco 49ers in Week 15, a matchup that would fall in the week of Sunday, Dec. 14. If this is the case, the Titans would be playing in a relatively warmer-weather climate in one of the team’s final road trips.
The OzzyNFL account on social media is reporting a leak of the Los Angeles Rams’ schedule, which includes the Rams coming to Nashville to face the Titans in Week 2. If that is the case, Cam Ward’s home opener in front of the Tennessee Titans faithful will be on Sept. 14 against Matthew Stafford and a group of contenders from the NFC.

A little more than 20% of the league’s schedule for 2025 has already been announced or is rumored via leaks and reports. The only Titans game that’s been reported thus far is the Week 1 matchup in Denver, but other teams ― especially big-market contenders ― have had 5-10 games leaked or announced.
Some of the teams with the most announcements and leaks/rumors that have come out prior to the schedule release are the Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars. Leaks have the Jaguars playing six games in the first seven weeks against opponents that aren’t the Titans, so it might take a little while for that rivalry to be renewed. As for the Chiefs, they’re bogarting all the games on holidays and special occasions, so the Titans can draw the Chiefs just about any time, seemingly as long as the game isn’t nationally televised in primetime.
Just about every Christmas, Thanksgiving and international game has been fully announced at this point, and the Titans aren’t on any list. So if you were budgeting for an overseas trip or trying to get out of spending time with your family on two major holidays, both look like they’re coming up empty.
Per a report from FOX Sports insider Jordan Schultz, the Titans will open the year in Denver against Bo Nix and the Broncos, a playoff team a year ago. The game will mark Cam Ward’s NFL debut, and it’s a welcome move for the Titans to make the trip to Denver this early in the season to avoid any potential bad weather situations in the Mile High City in November or December.
If you’re looking for an invaluable resource during schedule leak season, check out this page compiled at progrid.org. All of the confirmed games on the schedule are put in a neat, team-by-team spreadsheet, as well as some of the leaks that get reported through the days. The color coding helps, so don’t worry about getting fooled by confirmed games standing alongside leaks.
The NFL announced which games will be played overseas early Tuesday morning, and the Titans aren’t on the docket this year. Keep an eye out for next year, maybe.
The NFL’s broadcast partners (NBC, CBS, FOX, Amazon, ESPN and Netflix) will be announcing the days and times of select games ahead of time. Check out the following guide for when early schedule announcements will be made.
The first game of the NFL season will feature the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles hosting their rival Dallas Cowboys. The Titans don’t play either team this year, and even if they did, it’s hard to imagine the NFL wanting to put the Titans in primetime to start the season. So don’t consider this one much of a surprise.
