We are quickly approaching the release the 2024 schedules of the Detroit Lions and the rest of the league, something that will happen on Wednesday, May 15, at 8 p.m. ET. The reveal will be broadcast on ESPN and NFL Network, but teams will also reveal their schedules on social media.
The league has begun releasing some of the games that will take place early in the season, but as of this writing we haven’t seen any leaks for the Lions. What we do know is who Detroit will face in 2024.
Here’s a reminder:
Home opponents: Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Bears, Los Angeles Rams, Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars, Tennessee Titans, Buffalo Bills, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
