The NFL schedule leaks, rumors, and reports have started, and we should have most of the schedule penciled in before the Washington Commanders announce theirs at 7:45 p.m. ET Thursday night. The NFL will officially release the entire season’s schedule at 8 p.m. as part of their 2 hour release program, but have already leaked several games.

The first rumored Commanders game is once again the international game. They played in Spain last year, and a London game was confirmed months ago. A hospitality company in London, reportedly leaked the date of their game(October 4th) and the opponent is rumored to be the Indianapolis Colts, who they are scheduled to host this season. The NFL will officially announce the international games on Wednesday at 9 a.m. ET.

The New York Giants schedule usually gets fully leaked out before the official announcement, and we will be on the look out for that, and any other rumors and reports that pop up before the schedule is officially released.

Washington Commanders Leaks, Rumors & Reports:​

The one schedule leak rumor I’ve heard with the #Commanders is that they’re playing the Colts in London on October 4th. Trying to confirm it with another source, but it sounds like a strong possibility.

British hospitality company has Commanders playing in London on Oct. 4th. Consistent w what I’ve heard. More interesting, the Jags host a game Oct. 11th according to this site. Washington plays @ JAX so that could create chance for back to back games in London… pic.twitter.com/0X0slOuhrO
