With training camp in full swing, it won’t be long before the 2024 NFL season commences. As another year beckons, the other 31 teams will have an opportunity to dethrone the two-time Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaking of the Chiefs, they will host the Baltimore Ravens in the kickoff game for 2024. It’s an early rematch of last season’s AFC Championship Game that will take place at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
However, that’s just one of the 16 games in Week 1 of the upcoming season. Until then, football fans will be excited while hoping for the best for their beloved squads.
When is Week 1 of the 2024 NFL Season?
The opening weekend of the National Football League’s 105th season will be from Thursday, Sept. 5 to Monday, Sept. 9, 2024. While the Chiefs and the Ravens will play first, the Green Bay Packers and the Philadelphia Eagles will open their season at Arena Corinthians in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on Friday, Sept. 6.
The @Packers and @Eagles will head to São Paulo, Brazil for an opening weekend matchup!
