The full 2025 NFL schedule will be released on Wednesday at 8 p.m., but there will be announcements in the days and hours leading up. <\/p>\n

In regard to the Pittsburgh Steelers\u2019 opponent for the Ireland game, the NFL will also announce its International Games<\/a> on Tuesday, May 13 on the Emmy-nominated Good Morning Football on NFL Network.<\/p>\n

In addition to the International Games, the league\u2019s broadcast partners will announce select games on the following days:<\/p>\n

NBC \u2013 Monday, May 12 on TODAY Show<\/p>\n

FOX \u2013 Monday, May 12<\/p>\n

Prime Video \u2013 Monday, May 12<\/p>\n

ESPN \u2013 Tuesday, May 13 on Good Morning America<\/p>\n

CBS \u2013 Wednesday, May 14 on CBS Mornings<\/p>\n

Netflix \u2013 Wednesday, May 14<\/p>\n

There\u2019s been speculation that it will be the Green Bay Packers, especially with Green Bay now having global marketing rights<\/a> in Ireland.<\/p>\n

Mike North, who\u2019s the NFL vice president of broadcast planning, thinks the Buffalo Bills could be in play for the Ireland game<\/a>, however.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wouldn\u2019t take Buffalo-Pittsburgh and Dublin completely off the table just yet,\u201d Mike North said on the Always Gameday in Buffalo<\/a> podcast. \u201cBut to your point, there\u2019s a lot of other homes for a game like Buffalo-Pittsburgh, especially if Aaron Rodgers is the quarterback. You could see it Week One in a national window, you could see it Week Two in the first Thursday Amazon game, you could see it on a Sunday night, a Monday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou could see it on Black Friday, you could see it on Thanksgiving night, you could see it on Christmas. There\u2019s so many different ways to deploy that asset. But I wouldn\u2019t completely rule out Dublin. Don\u2019t be shocked if you see a big game or two as we continue to build interest in not just internationally, but also domestically.\u201d<\/p>\n

Packers executive Mark Murphy believes the Steelers may try to keep that game<\/a> at Acrisure Stadium, especially if they sign Aaron Rodgers.<\/p>\n

Murphy, speaking the Packers tailgate tour on Thursday, said that the Steelers will probably try to keep that game from being moved overseas.<\/p>\n

The NFL has not forced divisional teams to play overseas and the Steelers are unlikely to want to give up a divisional home game. That leaves six other potential opponents<\/a>, including the Packers. The Steelers other home opponents in the 2025 season will be the Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, Indianapolis Colts and Seattle Seahawks.<\/p>\n

The Colts will be hosting the first-ever NFL regular season game in Berlin, Germany<\/a> this season. The Dolphins will be the home team for the first game played in Madrid, Spain.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Vikings played in London in 2024, which would probably make the Bills and Seahawks the top choices to face the Steelers in Dublin if it\u2019s not the Packers.<\/p>\n

The Steelers will be giving up a home game for the trip to Ireland, as they are required to do once every eight years by the NFL. That means the opponent will come from the group of teams that is currently scheduled to be playing in Pittsburgh in 2025.<\/p>\n

The Steelers and Bills have seen a ton of one another lately. The Sehawks have also been a common opponent in recent years.<\/p>\n

Teams sometimes don\u2019t like to take away a home game against teams that have rarely visited, but neither of those would be the case in these matchups.<\/p>\n

The Steelers haven\u2019t played the Vikings since 2021, and haven\u2019t faced them in Pittsburgh since 2017. The Steelers also faced Green Bay in those two seasons, but the Packers also came to Pittsburgh in 2023.<\/p>\n
