Getty Images The NFL has unveiled the full 2026 regular season schedule. While everyone immediately leaps into all of those upcoming matchups, the release of the preseason schedule (which also came out on Thursday) oftentimes falls under the radar. It's understandable given that those are merely exhibitions to prepare organizations for the real thing come September, but it is a critical piece of the NFL calendar. It's where roster spots can be earned or lost, and rookies and veterans alike lay the foundation for the upcoming year.
Of course, we'll get it all started with the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game, when the Arizona Cardinals and Carolina Panthers kick off on Aug. 6. Below, you can find every team's preseason schedules, with some start times for some games still to be determined.
