By day’s end, the Detroit Lions and its fans will know the time and date of every opponent on the Lions’ 2026 NFL schedule. The 2026 NFL schedule release is set to air tonight beginning at 8 p.m. ET for all 32 teams.
There’s been a couple official announcements and another scheduling report already this week.
As is the case every year, scheduling leaks will emerge before the official 2026 NFL schedule release tonight. While many leaks do wind up coming to fruition, nothing is official until the Lions or the NFL announces it.
