While the full NFL regular season schedule won't be officially released until Wednesday night, the leaks are already in full force.

While the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles have had a handful of their games announced throughout the season, there hadn't been many hints outside of them.

This was until Tuesday morning, when the league revealed numerous matchups at the same time.

Here's what we know about the 2025 NFL schedule release date.

Jets 2025 schedule: What we know so far​


The biggest detail that was announced Tuesday morning was the NFL's 2025 international schedule, which included it being official that the Jets will head across the pond to London to play the Denver Broncos on Oct. 12 at 9:30 a.m. in Week 6 of the regular season.

It's also known that the Jets will not play the Cowboys in Week 1, as Dallas heads to Philadelphia to take on the reigning Super Bowl champion Eagles to kickoff the 2025 season.

The Jets will play the AFC North and NFC South divisions in 2025 and their fellow AFC East teams twice.

Here's the full list of Jets' home opponents in 2025:


Here's the full list of Jets' road opponents in 2025:

  • Buffalo Bills
  • Miami Dolphins
  • New England Patriots
  • Baltimore Ravens
  • Cincinnati Bengals
  • New Orleans Saints
  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers
  • Jacksonville Jaguars

New York Jets strength of schedule​


The Jets' 2024 opponents went 133-156 last season, ranking their schedule tied for 26th in the 32-team league. That makes their schedule the second easiest in the division, as the Commanders schedule is No. 30 in strength of opponent, while the Bills' is 23rd and the Dolphins' is 21st.

New York Jets prime time games​


Teams can play a maximum of six prime time games, last year four did, including the Jets, who are in one of the biggest media markets. With the return of Aaron Rodgers in 2024, they played in six primetime games before their bye in Week 12, with the addition of also playing in London against the Vikings in Week 5 of 2024.

Jets predictions, picks: How many games will New York win?​


The early over-under on wins, as set by Betmgm.com, has the Jets at 5.5 games, right around the mark they had last season where they finished with a 5-12 record. That would put them at the bottom of the AFC East again, as Buffalo is tied for a league-high 11.5 games while the Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots are at 8.5.

Baltimore, Buffalo, Kansas City and Philadelphia have an over-under of 11.5 wins, the best in the league. The Cleveland Browns, at 4.5 wins, are projected to be the worst team in the league.

What do Jets want to see on 2025 schedule?​


Given it's the AFC year to have nine home games, there's a good chance the Jets will start the season in front of their home fans, especially if the Giants are presumably beginning their campaign on the road.

Pittsburgh Steelers: If Aaron Rodgers does ultimately sign with the Steelers, the NFL could totally schedule Rodgers' return to MetLife for the opening week of the season in what would likely be in primetime on Sunday or Monday night.

Miami Dolphins: The NFL has shown that it isn't afraid to put a divisional matchup in Week 1 after announcing the NFC East showdown between the Eagles and Cowboys on opening night. So why not pin two divisional opponents coming off of a disappointing year to start off on the right foot with a game either in East Rutherford or South Beach.

Baltimore Ravens: Staying with AFC North theme, if the league decides to have the Jets start on the road, why not have Week 1 feature two of the NFL's best dual-threat QBs in Fields and two-time NFL MVP Lamar Jackson.
