NFL Kickoff Game History
The National Football League (NFL) Kickoff Game, formally known as the NFL Kickoff game, is an annual game that marks the beginning of the NFL regular season. The game is played on the Thursday night following Labor Day in early September, close to the start of the college football season. While it has sometimes been played on a weekend, since 2002 it has always been played on a Thursday night, mainly to stay away from conflict with Labor Day weekend and high school football games.
