We’re all eagerly awaiting the release of the Detroit Lions’ 2018 schedule, which will officially be announced at 8 p.m. ET on Thursday night. But before that happens, we’ll likely get a handful of rumors before then.
The first is already out and it’s an important one. The New York Post is reporting that the Lions will open the season on the road against the New York Jets on “Monday Night Football.”
The NFL likes to open up the season with two “Monday Night Football” games, so it’s unclear whether this will be the first or the second game played that day.
