We’re less than 24 hours away from the NFL schedule release for the 2022 season. Semi-annoyingly but cleverly, the league has been slowly leaking out the regular season matchups little by little. The first Thursday Night Football game on Amazon is confirmed, ditto the International Series, one of three Christmas Day games, and the first Monday Night Football doubleheader of the season.
On Thursday we’ll have our usual schedule tracker but here are confirmed, undeniably true games the NFL has announced. Don’t believe everything you read online, and definitely not random Twitter accounts created this week.
