The NFL Season Schedule
The NFL season is set to start on September 9th, 2021. The regular season will consist of 17 weeks, with each team playing 16 games. The playoffs will start on January 8th, 2022, and the Super Bowl will be played on February 13th, 2022.
Pre-Season
The National Football League (NFL) preseason is the period each year during which NFL teams play several not-for-the-record exhibition games before the regular season.
The NFL regular season typically kicks off on the Thursday night following Labor Day, and runs for 17 weeks until late December or early January. This means that the 2021 NFL season is tentatively scheduled to begin on September 9, 2021 and end on January 9, 2022.
During the preseason, teams play games against each other to help coaches determine which players will make the final cut for the regular season roster. Preseason games are also used as a way for new players to acclimate themselves to the speed and level of play in the NFL.
Regular Season
The National Football League (NFL) regular season begins the weekend following the Labor Day holiday (the first Monday in September). From that weekend through the end of the year, each team plays 16 games, for a total of 256. The NFL playoffs begin in late December or early January, and culminate with the AFC and NFC Championship Games, typically held on the first or second Sunday of February. The final game of the NFL season is the Super Bowl, which is played on a Sunday afternoon at a pre-selected site that is usually warm or mild weather.
Post-Season
The NFL regular season typically runs from the week after Labor Day to the week after Christmas, with each team playing 16 games and having one bye week.
The playoffs begin in late-December or early January, and end in early February with the Super Bowl, the biggest single-day sporting event in the United States.
In 2021, the NFL season is scheduled to run from September 9 to January 9, with the playoffs beginning on January 16 and ending on February 6 with Super Bowl LVI.
Conclusion
The NFL season is set to start on September 9th, 2021.
