Contents
The NFL schedule release for the 2022 season is set for May 12th at 8pm EST. Here’s what we know so far about the NFL’s plans for next year.
The NFL usually releases the schedule in May
The 2022 NFL regular season is scheduled to begin on September 8, 2022. The NFL usually releases the schedule in May, but the date has not yet been announced.
The NFL has not released the schedule yet
The National Football League has not released the schedule for the 2022 season yet. The NFL generally releases the schedule in the spring, so it is possible that the schedule will be released in April or May of 2022.
The NFL is expected to release the schedule soon
The NFL is expected to release the schedule for the 2022 season soon. The schedule release date is typically in April, a few months before the start of the regular season.
The NFL typically releases the schedule a few months before the start of the regular season, so it’s possible that the schedule for next season could be released as early as April. However, the date of the release has not been announced yet, so it’s unclear exactly when we can expect to see it.
In the meantime, we do know that the 2022 NFL season will kick off on Thursday, September 8th. The regular season will conclude on Sunday, January 8th, 2023.
The NFL may release the schedule earlier than usual
The NFL is considering releasing its 2022 schedule earlier than usual, league sources told ESPN.
No final decision has been made, but the league is mulling the idea of releasing the full regular-season schedule in April — possibly on Wednesday, April 13, which would be two weeks before the 2021 NFL draft. The draft is currently scheduled for April 29-May 1.
The NFL typically releases its schedule in mid- to late-April. This year’s schedule was released on May 12.
If the league does move up the release date of the 2022 schedule, it would give teams and fans more time to plan for next season. It would also allow the NFL to avoid having the schedule released on the same day as the draft, which would be a logistical nightmare.
