The 2026 NFL regular season will include 10 new head coaches, a record nine international games and, as always, plenty of drama.
The full, 272-game schedule dropped on Thursday. Week 1 starts with a Super Bowl rematch when the Seattle Seahawks host the New England Patriots on Wednesday, Sept. 9, continues with the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers playing in Melbourne, Australia, and wraps up on “Monday Night Football” with the Kansas City Chiefs hosting the Denver Broncos.
