The 2025 NFL season is the 106th season of the National Football League (NFL). The season is scheduled to begin on September 4, 2025, with the NFL Kickoff Game. The regular season is set to end on January 4, 2026.

The playoffs are then scheduled to start on January 10, and conclude with Super Bowl LX, the league's championship game, at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on February 8.

Player movement

The 2025 NFL league year and trading period will start on March 12. On March 10, teams will be allowed to exercise options for 2025 on players with option clauses in their contracts, submit qualifying offers to their pending restricted free agents, and submit a Minimum Salary Tender to retain exclusive negotiating rights to their players with expiring 2024 contracts and fewer than three accrued seasons of free agent credit. Teams were required to be under the salary cap using the "top 51" definition (in which the 51 highest paid-players on the team's payroll must have a combined salary cap). On March 12, clubs will be allowed to contact and begin contract negotiations with players whose contracts had expired and thus became unrestricted free agents.^[1]

The 2025 NFL draft will take place around Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on April 24–26.^[2]

Preseason

The majority of training camps will be opened on July 23. The preseason will begin on July 31 with the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game.

Regular season

The season is planned to be played over an 18-week schedule, beginning on September 4. Each of the league's 32 teams plays 17 games, with one bye week. The regular season is then scheduled to end on January 4, 2026; all games during the final weekend will be intra-division games, as it has been since 2010.^[1]

Each team plays the other three teams in its own division twice, one game against each of the four teams from a division in its own conference, one game against each of the four teams from a division in the other conference, one game against each of the remaining two teams in its conference that finished in the same position in their respective divisions the previous season (e.g., the team that finished fourth in its division would play all three other teams in its conference that also finished fourth in their divisions), and one game against a team in another division in the other conference that also finished in the same position in their respective division the previous season.^[3]

The division pairings for 2025 are as follows:^[3]

Four intra-conference games
AFC East vs AFC South
AFC North vs AFC West
NFC East vs NFC South
NFC North vs NFC West

Four interconference games
AFC East vs NFC West
AFC North vs NFC East

Media

National

Linear television

This will be the third season under 11-year U.S. media rights agreements with CBS, Fox, NBC, and ESPN/ABC along with its Spanish counterparts ESPN Deportes, Fox Deportes, and Telemundo Deportes.^[4] Under these linear television rights:

Sunday afternoon games are split between CBS and Fox. Both networks will continue to carry the Sunday afternoon AFC and NFC packages, respectively. When the initial schedule was created, CBS and Fox were able to specify a limited amount of games involving teams from their respective conference that they want to air, but otherwise the league was free to schedule games regardless of conference.^[5] Each network is scheduled to air ten doubleheaders, with both networks airing one on Weeks 15 and 18.^[6]^[7] On Thanksgiving, CBS will have the early Detroit game and Fox the late Dallas game.^[4] CBS also has the option of producing alternative broadcasts of select games on Nickelodeon.^[4]
NBC will continue to air Sunday Night Football, the NFL Kickoff Game, and the primetime Thanksgiving game.^[4]
ESPN will continue to produce Monday Night Football and the doubleheader on the last Saturday of the season. Four MNF games and the Saturday doubleheader will be ESPN/ABC simulcasts. Three weeks will feature two MNF games split between ABC and ESPN.^[4]^[8]^[9]
NFL Network will air four International Series and three late-season Saturday games.

Streaming

This will be the fourth year of a 12-year deal with Amazon Prime Video and Twitch to exclusively stream Thursday Night Football.^[10] This will also be the third season that Prime Video/Twitch will stream the game on the Friday after Thanksgiving.^[11] DirecTV has an agreement with Amazon to distribute Thursday Night Football games to business establishments.^[12]
Peacock will simulcast NBC's games.^[4]
ESPN+ will simulcast all games on ABC, including games being simulcast on ESPN.^[4]
Paramount+ will simulcast in market and national CBS games.^[4]
Netflix will exclusively stream at least one game in 2025, as part of a three year deal..^[13]
This will be the third season out of a seven year deal that the NFL Sunday Ticket out-of-market sports package will stream on YouTube TV, as well as on YouTube's Primetime Channels service as a standalone subscription option.^[14] DirecTV and EverPass Media will also distribute NFL Sunday Ticket to business establishments.^[15]^[16]^[17]
The league's streaming service NFL+ will continue to live stream in-market regular season and postseason games on mobile devices only, radio broadcasts for all games, most out-of-market preseason games and a live stream of NFL Network on its base tier, and replays of games along with a live stream of NFL RedZone on its premium tier.^[18]

Postseason

All four broadcast partners will air at least one Wild Card round game, with CBS and Fox airing a AFC and NFC Wild Card game, respectively. NBC will air the Sunday night game under the fifth year of its seven-year deal.^[19]^[20]^[21] ESPN/ABC will broadcast the Monday night Wild Card game, its last in a five-year deal.^[22]^[23] Fox will air a second game in the wild card round as part of its rotation with CBS and NBC.

This will be the third season that all four broadcast television partners air one divisional playoff game per season (ESPN/ABC, Fox, CBS, and NBC).^[24]

NBC will televise Super Bowl LX in the annual rotation of Super Bowl broadcasters.^[25]
