The NFL is making additional moves to reach more fans with direct-to-consumer offerings. The league announced on Wednesday, Aug. 9, 2023, that NFL Network and NFL RedZone will be available on “NFL+,” the streaming service the league launched last year. According to Nielsen’s cable estimates, NFL Network is available to 51.1 million customers, which is the most for a network run by a professional league or college conference.(AP Photo/LM Otero, File)AP

The NFL will finally release the official schedule for the upcoming 2024 campaign after weeks of teases, pushing the event back a week and countless advertisements. One thing is clear for the Detroit Lions, as they won’t be going overseas or playing on Christmas Day this year.

We’ve also known who the Lions -- and the rest of the NFL -- will play for four months now. We’re just waiting on the order to see who they’ll host on Thanksgiving and how many times last year’s prime-time darlings will play in front of a national audience in 2024.

EVENT INFORMATION

Wednesday, May 15: The NFL will release the schedule for the 2024 regular season at 8 p.m. Stick with MLive.com/Lions for updates and more concerning the Lions and their slate of games for the upcoming campaign.
