We're moving quickly through the NFL offseason. Free agency has quieted down, and up next is the 2025 NFL draft (April 24-26, hosted this year by Green Bay). After that comes the 2025 schedule release. New Orleans Saints fans always travel well, and this year has some compelling road trips lined up. So when should we grab our calendars and start circling dates for this year's games?
Assuming the NFL follows the same pattern as recent years, the schedule will drop in mid-May, maybe sooner. We've seen the NFL schedule release on May 15, May 11, May 12, May 12 (again), and May 7 over the last five years.
