Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers will find out their full 2025 schedule later today.
The Green Bay Packers have known their 2025 opponents since the season ended on Jan. 5.
This evening, the Packers found out when they play each team.
Here’s a look at Green Bay’s schedule, with a breakdown of how each team fared in 2024 and the moves they’ve made this offseason.
WEEK 1: vs. Detroit (15-2)
Sept. 7, 3:25 p.m. (FOX)
2024 recap: The Lions went 15-2, won the NFC North for a second straight season and were the conference’s No. 1 seed. Detroit was routed by Washington, though, 45-31, in its playoff opener. The Lions remain the only team in the NFC that’s never played in a Super Bowl.
Offseason moves: The Lions’ biggest losses were offensive coordinator Ben Johnson (Chicago) and Aaron Glenn (New York Jets), who both earned head coaching positions. Detroit’s key additions in free agency were cornerback D.J. Reed and linebacker Derrick Barnes, while the Lions lost cornerback Carlton Davis and offensive guard Kevin Zeitler.
WEEK 2: vs. Washington (12-5)
Sept. 11, 7:15 p.m. p.m. (PRIME VIDEO)
2024 recap: The Commanders — led by Offensive Rookie of the Year Jayden Daniels — went from 4-13 to the NFC Championship Game in one year. Daniels threw for nearly 3,600 yards and 25 touchdowns, and ran for almost 900 yards and six more TDs.
Offseason moves: Washington traded a fifth round draft pick to San Francisco for Deebo Samuel, then gave the standout wide receiver a three-year, $71 million contract extension. They also traded for standout offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil.
WEEK 3: at Cleveland (3-14)
Sept. 21, noon (FOX)
2024 recap: The Browns were, well, the Browns. Cleveland, which hasn’t won a championship since 1964, went 3-14 and lost its final six games.
Offseason moves: Cleveland’s biggest move was convincing defensive end Myles Garrett to stick around. Four years and $160 million can do that. Free agency brought little help, and the quarterback room of Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders is arguably the NFL’s worst. The Browns had a chance to draft generational talent Travis Hunter with the No. 2 pick in the draft, but moved back and selected defensive tackle Mason Graham instead.
WEEK 4: at Dallas (7-10)
Sept. 28, 7:20 p.m. (NBC)
2024 recap: Quarterback Dak Prescott was lost to a season-ending hamstring injury in Week 9 and the Cowboys’ year was essentially over. Dallas, the NFC East champs in 2023, finished 7-10 and fired coach Mike McCarthy after the season.
Offseason moves: Dallas promoted offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to replace McCarthy, a move that drew little excitement from Cowboy Nation. On the field, the Cowboys’ biggest loss was defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, who signed with Seattle in free agency. Dallas may have helped itself with trades for wide receiver George Pickens and cornerback Kaiir Elam.
WEEK 5: BYE
WEEK 6: vs. Cincinnati (9-8)
Oct. 12, 3:25 p.m. (CBS)
2024 recap: The Bengals went 9-8, but missed the playoffs for a second straight year. Quarterback Joe Burrow threw for nearly 5,000 yards and 43 touchdowns, wideout Ja’Marr Chase was sensational (127 catches, 1,708 yards, 17 TDs), but the defense was 25th in points allowed (25.5).
Offseason moves: The Bengals signed wideouts Ja’maar Chase and Tee Higgins to long-term deals and dumped defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo. All eyes are now on standout defensive end Trey Hendrickson, who says he won’t suit up without a new contract. Stay tuned.
WEEK 7: at Arizona (8-9)
Oct. 19, 3:25 (FOX)
2024 recap: The Cardinals went 8-9 and have had just one winning season since 2015. Trey McBride had 111 catches, the fourth-most by a tight end in NFL history. The offense ranked 12th in scoring and the defense was 15th in points allowed.
Offseason moves: Arizona loaded up its defense by adding linebacker Josh Sweat, defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson and defensive end Calais Campbell. The Cardinals then used their first five draft picks on defensive players, including tackle Walter Nolen and cornerback Will Johnson in the first two rounds.
WEEK 8: at Pittsburgh (10-7)
Oct. 26, 7:20 (NBC)
2024 recap: The Steelers went 10-7 and haven’t had a losing season since 2003. That 21-year streak tied Dallas for the longest in NFL history. Pittsburgh reached the postseason for the fourth time in five years, but lost in the wild card round to Baltimore.
Offseason moves: It’s been AAA season in Pittsburgh — All About Aaron — as the Steel City waits to see if quarterback Aaron Rodgers will become a Steeler. In typical Rodgers fashion, this drama has lingered for months. If Rodgers eventually signs with Pittsburgh, this contest against his former team could be the NFL’s most watched game in 2025. Pittsburgh’s biggest offseason moves, to date, were trading for wideout D.K. Metcalf and trading away wideout George Pickens.
WEEK 9: vs. Carolina (5-12)
Nov. 2, noon (FOX)
2024 recap: The Panthers had their seventh straight losing season, going 5-12 overall. Quarterback Bryce Young, the No. 1 pick in 2003, was benched at one point, the defense ranked 32nd and the offense ranked 29th.
Offseason moves: The Panthers were active in free agency, and should get a lift from rookie wideout Tetairoa McMillan, the No. 8 overall pick in April’s draft.
WEEK 10: vs. Philadelphia (14-3)
Nov. 10, Monday Night Football, 7:15 p.m. (ESPN)
2024 recap: The Eagles started the season 2-2, then went 16-1 the rest of the way and won the 59th Super Bowl. Running back Saquon Barkley was arguably the best player in football last year, rushing for 2,006 yards and scoring 15 total touchdowns, while the defense ranked No. 1 in yards allowed (278.4) and No. 2 in points allowed (17.8).
Offseason moves: Like all Super Bowl champions, the Eagles took some hits in free agency — most notably linebacker Josh Sweat, tackle Milton Williams, safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson and cornerback Isaiah Rodgers. Philadelphia re-signed standout linebacker Zack Baun, though, and appears to have had another strong draft.
WEEK 11: at New York Giants (3-14)
Nov. 16, noon (FOX)
2024 recap: The Giants had another dreadful season, going 3-14 while being outscored by 142 points. That’s left general manager Joe Schoen and coach Brian Daboll in a “must win” season.
Offseason moves: The Giants used the No. 3 pick in the draft on edge rusher Abdul Carter, who they believe can be an annual Pro Bowler. New York signed free agent quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston in free agency and drafted Jaxson Dart in the first round. Defensive backs Paulson Adebo and Jevon Holland were the top additions in free agency
WEEK 12: vs. Minnesota (14-3)
Nov. 23, noon (FOX)
2024 recap: The Vikings were one of the NFL’s surprise teams, sitting at 14-2 heading into a Week 18 showdown at Detroit. The Lions routed Minnesota, though, 31-9, in that battle for the NFC’s top seed. The Vikings then slipped to the No. 5 seed and lost their playoff opener at the Los Angeles Rams.
Offseason moves: The J.J. McCarthy-era is here after the Vikings chose not to re-sign quarterback Sam Darnold in free agency. Can McCarthy — who missed his rookie season with torn meniscus in his right knee — keep the Vikings near the top of the conference? Minnesota also beefed up both lines of scrimmage, most notably by signing defensive tackles Jonathan Alen and Javon Hargrove.
WEEK 13: at Detroit (15-2)
Nov. 27, noon (FOX)
Analysis: The teams have met 21 times on Thanksgiving (all in Detroit) and the Packers are 12-8-1 in those contests. Green Bay defeated the Lions on Thanksgiving in 2023, but that’s the Packers’ only win against Detroit in the last seven meetings between these teams.
Can the Packers swing the tide back in their favor in 2025?
WEEK 14: vs. Chicago (5-12)
Dec. 7, noon (FOX)
2024 recap: Chicago began the year 4-2 and looked to be greatly improved from its 7-10 season in 2023. Then the Bears reverted to form, lost 10 straight games, fired coach Matt Eberflus after a comical performance on Thanksgiving, and finished the year 5-12.
Offseason moves: Chicago’s biggest move was hiring former Detroit offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, known as one of the brightest young offensive minds in the game. Can Johnson turn around this moribund franchise, or will he be the next in line to fail? Chicago was also extremely active in free agency, adding guards Joe Thuney and Jonah Jackson, and center Drew Dalman to an offensive line that allowed 68 sacks a year ago.
WEEK 15: at Denver (10-7)
Dec. 14, 3:25 p.m. (CBS)
2024 recap: The Broncos were one of the NFL’s surprise teams, going 10-7 with rookie quarterback Bo Nix. Denver was the No. 7 seed in the AFC, and lost its wild card round game to Buffalo, 31-7.
Offseason moves: The Broncos had an impressive free agency period, highlighted by the signing of linebacker Dre Greenlaw, safety Talanoa Hufanga and tight end Evan Engram. First round cornerback Jahdae Barron should also provide help to a defense that was already stout, ranking No. 3 in scoring last season.
WEEK 16: at Chicago, (5-12)
TBD
Analysis: The Packers won at Chicago, 20-19, in 2024 when Karl Brooks blocked a field goal on the final play of the game. Green Bay has won six straight games at Chicago and 15 of 16 in the Windy City. The matchup between coaches Matt La Fleur and Ben Johnson will be fun.
WEEK 17: vs. Baltimore (12-5)
TBD
2024 recap: The Ravens won their second straight AFC North title and reached the conference semifinals, where they lost to Buffalo, 27-25. Quarterback Lamar Jackson had his best season with a 119.6 passer rating and 45 total touchdowns, running back Derrick Henry had 1,921 rushing yards and 18 total TDs, while the defense ranked No. 1 against the run (80.1) and No. 9 in points allowed (21.2).
Offseason moves: Baltimore’s top priority this offseason was resigning standout tackle Ronnie Stanley, which it did. First round safety Malaki Starks could be a star for years to come.
WEEK 18: at Minnesota (14-3)
TBD
Analysis: Minnesota head coach Kevin O’Connell is 4-2 against Green Bay’s Matt LaFleur, including a season-sweep last year. Can O’Connell — a quarterback whisperer — keep it going with first-time starter J.J. McCarthy?
