The wait is over: the 2025 NFL regular season begins tomorrow, when the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles host the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field.
It’s a heavyweight opener for one of football’s fiercest rivalries; Jalen Hurts and the Eagles return much of last year’s roster in pursuit of another title, while the Cowboys debut a refreshed look with Dak Prescott back from injury, new receiving duo CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, and Brian Schottenheimer in his first game as head coach.
Week 1 continues with another marquee matchup Friday night, when the Los Angeles Chargers face the Kansas City Chiefs in São Paulo, Brazil—the league’s first-ever regular season game in South America. Sunday features a full slate of divisional battles, capped by the Baltimore Ravens visiting the Buffalo Bills in primetime.
The inaugural action wraps up Monday with an NFC North clash between the Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears at Soldier Field.
