The NFL finally revealed its full schedule for the 2025 season yesterday, capping off a few days of information trickling out. The league is clearly trying to make this yet another premier event in the offseason, using it to push corporate sponsorships and to drum up interest for its TV and streaming broadcast partners.<\/p>\n
For the average football fan, the big impacts of the schedule are probably limited to a few laughs at a release video and knowing when to start planning for trips to road games. Otherwise, the whole circus around the release seems to this writer to be a bit overblown, even if I did get carried away yesterday and try to predict the Green Bay Packers<\/a>\u2019 full schedule after only 10 games or so had been leaked.<\/p>\n Now the league largely will go into dormancy until the start of training camp in late July. Yes, OTAs and minicamp are coming up for all 32 teams, but there\u2019s only so many narratives that the NFL as a whole can push from a few days of practices in shorts. Look for things to finally quiet down for the next 10 weeks or so before players start reporting for training camp.<\/p>\n Until then, we\u2019ll be here to cover anything notable that comes out of Green Bay and we\u2019ll keep looking deeper into the Packers\u2019 schedule this week to find some interesting nuggets. But know that as far as league-wide news goes, this is probably it for a while.<\/p>\n How an 18-game NFL schedule could work for everyone: Introducing the 1816 Compromise – The Athletic ($)<\/a> Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion ready to work with Jordan Love | Packersnews.com<\/a> Quick hit observations from Packers 2025 schedule | Packers Wire<\/a> Packers face critical juncture with 2 high-profile games in 5 days \u2026 twice | Packers.com<\/a>
The league still seems to want to move to an 18-game schedule, so this idea proposes that no player can suit up for more than 16 games in a single season. Crazy or brilliant?<\/p>\n
Ahead of the release, a handful of Packers assistant coaches spoke to the media, including Mannion, who gave his first press conference as QBs coach.<\/p>\n
Here are a couple of initial thoughts on the schedule.<\/p>\n
The Packers have a pair of Thursday games this season, and both short weeks will be against tough opponents.<\/p>\n
