NFL releases complete Week 1 schedule, home openers for 2022 season

The NFL has released a complete schedule of their Week 1 slate ahead of the schedule reveal Thursday evening.

Most notably, the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks will face off in the first Monday Night Football game of the season, while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Dallas Cowboys play Sunday night. The Super Bowl Champion Los Angeles Rams will kick the season off at home against the Buffalo Bills as well.

With Bills quarterback Josh Allen and Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford combining for over 75 touchdowns last season, there’s no doubt both Super Bowl contenders will be firing on all cylinders to begin what looks to be another great NFL season.

Likely the most anticipated storyline that has come out of Thursday’s schedule release is Russell Wilson’s return to Seattle. someone would’ve told you six months ago that Russell Wilson will be kicking his season off in Seattle, they’d have brushed the comment off; if you would’ve told them it’d be for the opposition, their reaction would be a little different.

Here are the home openers for Week 1 of the 2022-2023 NFL season.

• Buffalo Bills at Los Angeles Rams
• New Orleans Saints at Atlanta Falcons
• Cleveland Browns at Carolina Panthers
