2021 NFL schedule release: How to watch, stream, date, time, TV channel, more for unveiling of 17-game season​

The 2021 NFL season is on the horizon now that the draft and big waves of free agency are in the rear view. But first comes one of the most unique schedule releases in the history of the league. Yes, that's right. With 17 regular-season games on tap for the first time since the NFL first kicked off, this year's season marks a literal expansion of the football calendar. What better way to recognize the new feat than by tuning in for the official schedule release?

Sounds great! But how do I watch? We're so glad you asked. The NFL is hosting a special "Schedule Release '21" show this year to unveil all 17 games for all 32 teams. And we've got all the details you need to follow along:

How to watch​

Date: Wednesday, May 12
Time: 8 p.m. ET
TV: NFL Network | Stream: NFL.com, NFL app, fuboTV (try for free)
More coverage: CBS Sports HQ, CBSSports.com

All 32 official team schedules will be announced at 8 p.m. ET, but CBS Sports HQ -- our free, live 24/7 sports streaming network -- will kick off schedule-release coverage at 7 p.m. You can access HQ coverage at CBSSports.com, or via the CBS Sports app for key connected devices like Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV and Roku; as well as on iOS and Android; through CBSN; and Paramount+.

If you're looking for full 17-game schedules, as well as previews of the top prime-time matchups and CBS broadcasts on tap for this fall, be sure to catch our Wednesday night breakdown of the 2021 regular-season slate.



With the schedule being released on Wednesday I thought it would be a good time to see what everyone thinks are schedule will look like? Who do you think we open against? How many prime time games will we get and who will the opponents be?

My guess is we open up against Detroit on MNF. I think we will have 5 prime time games:

Detroit
Tampa
San Fran
At Seattle
At Green Bay

Can @ Seattle be early in the season for once?

Since Bears are already revealed, probably get...

TNF - @ Cardinals

MNF - Lions

SNF - shitters

SNF - @ shitbirds

So last year the Steelers had one of the easiest SOS and this year they have one of the toughest. So what does that mean for TJ Squat (as in zero DPoY)? Will he face tougher competition and have weaker stats playing against better blocking offensive lines? Or will that mean he gets more defensive snaps and has more chances to make more plays?

Sounds like we should see schedule leaks early today, with the Networks allowed to announce their week one games early.



Week One schedule to be announced Wednesday morning​

The full NFL schedule will be released on Wednesday night at 8:00 p.m. ET. For the first time since 1993 (the one year of two byes), the season will have 18 weeks.

The schedule for the first week will be released early.

Via multiple reports and accounts, the various network partners will release their Week One schedules tomorrow morning. For NBC, that means two key games for the opening week: The Thursday night opener on September 9, and the Sunday night game for the first week of the season, on September 12.

Peter King recently guessed in his Football Morning in America column that the opening game will be either the Bills or the Cowboys at the Buccaneers. Regardless of the opponent, the Bucs will host the opening game.

This year, for the first time since 2006, there won’t be a Monday night doubleheader. That means 14 games will be played on the opening Sunday, with 13 of them being played in the 1:00 p.m. ET and 4:05 p.m./4:25 p.m. ET windows.

Not sure how the season pans out but I had a dream we lost 10-0 to the Bears, and I don't even think we play them. I just remember our OL was god awful and remember us all saying "of fuckin course it is! We didn't invest a damn thing into it".
Fuck. We open the season with the Bears and I had this dream.

I saw a tweet about this and it showed Donald wearing the bone jersey. Why can't we open with the blue jersey and yellow pants? Don't understand that at all.

Terrible idea to have this matchup week one. You’d think if the nfl wanted to push this game it would be later in the year. How likely is Fields to start week one?
One would think not likely.....but Nagy is a moron so it’s possible.

No shit - I am getting extremely tired of playing AT Seattle either the last week of the year or the second to last week of the year

It is bullshit that we have had to do that in the last 10 years

How about Rams/lions on thanksgiving?
Wouldn’t that be cool?

That would be cool, unfortunately the Lions play the RAMS in LA this year and if I'm correct the Thanksgiving Day game is played in Detroit. The RAMS haven't played on Thanksgiving Day in 46 year, 1975 they beat the Lions 20-0. The RAMS are 4-0 on Thanksgiving.

They lost at Texas Stadium to the Cowboys, 28-21, in 1971.

Another leak has us at Green Bay in week 12. If my math is right that's Thanksgiving weekend... possibly bad weather game.
