It's going to be a hard knock life for the Buffalo Bills.
For the first time in franchise history, the Bills are taking center stage on Hard Knocks. Episode 1 premieres Tuesday, Aug. 5 at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and Max.
The five-part "Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Buffalo Bills" will air weekly, following a team with Super Bowl aspirations through training camp at St. John Fisher University in Pittsford.
Each episode will also be available to stream on Max. HBO’s schedule lists multiple re-airings throughout the week, including on HBO Latino and HBO2.
The Bills were selected for the training camp series after the NFL eliminated a previous provision that allowed playoff teams to decline the league's request to be featured on the show.
"It was quite a surprise," Bills quarterback Josh Allen told USA TODAY on July 14, adding that he found out the news on his 29th birthday, May 21. "Typically, teams that make the playoffs are never a part of that conversation.
"I probably, initially, didn't react too great to it. But I do think it's a cool opportunity for people to see some of the great men we have on our team and some of the great women we have in our staff as a whole."
An NFL Films crew of about 35 people is stationed at St. John Fisher through the end of August.
“Hard Knocks has a larger, casual fan base than most other NFL programming,” executive producer Ken Rodgers told The Athletic. “It’s a workplace drama, and it’s about the characters. I think the nation is going to get to know these people in a way that they haven’t experienced from just watching them play on Sunday.”
The in-season edition of "Hard Knocks" will follow the NFC East in the second year of division-wide coverage.
This is the 21st edition of the "Hard Knocks" training camp series, which began in 2001.
HBO and NFL Films have confirmed a five-episode run, airing weekly at 9 p.m. ET. Here’s the expected schedule:
