In total, the Packers have eight home games at Lambeau Field and will play on the road nine times.
This is the first time since 2018 that Green Bay is opening the season at home.
Green Bay will have at least four primetime games: one on Thursday Night Football, two on Sunday Night Football and one on Monday Night Football. That number could increase, as the dates and times of the Packers’ final three games of the season have not yet been determined.
For the third straight year, the Packers are playing on Thanksgiving Day. This year, they’ll face off against the Lions.
The final stretch of Green Bay’s season will be heavy with games against divisional rivals. After the Packers’ season opener versus Detroit in Week 1, the green and gold don’t have another NFC North matchup until Week 12. Of the Packers’ final seven games, five are against divisional opponents.
It’s likely going to be an uphill battle for Green Bay this season with a schedule chock full of games against teams who made the playoffs last year. In addition to facing Philadelphia, the defending Super Bowl champions, Green Bay also plays three AFC playoff teams (Broncos, Steelers and Ravens) and three NFC playoff teams (Vikings x2, Lions x2 and Commanders).
Preseason games were also announced Wednesday.
- Week 1: Packers vs. Jets – Saturday, Aug. 9 at 7 p.m.
- Week 2: Packers at Colts – Saturday, Aug. 16 at 12 p.m.
- Week 3: Packers vs. Seahawks – Saturday, Aug. 23 at 3 p.m.
