NFL Schedule Release Latest News
The NFL schedule release will reveal the full regular-season slate, including all weekly matchups, primetime games, international games, holiday games and key divisional showdowns.
Some games are typically announced before the full schedule comes out, while others surface through team reporters, national insiders and broadcast partners. This tracker will separate confirmed announcements from reported leaks as the day develops.
2026 NFL Schedule Leaks and Rumors
Schedule release day usually brings a steady stream of leaks before the league officially unveils the full slate. Some leaks come from credible team reporters or national NFL insiders, while others spread through fan accounts, local media or partial team schedule graphics.
The most important distinction is whether a game has been officially confirmed or merely reported. Confirmed games will be labeled as such, while unconfirmed matchups will be treated as reported, leaked or rumored until the NFL or one of the teams involved makes an official announcement.
When Does the NFL Schedule Come Out?
The full NFL schedule release is at 8 p.m. EST on May 14 and will be broadcast on NFL Network, ESPN 2 and the ESPN App and NFL+.
The release will finalize major pieces of the season, including Week 1 matchups, Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football, Thursday Night Football, international games, Thanksgiving games, Christmas games and late-season divisional matchups.

This live tracker will follow several key categories of schedule news:
