The NFL released the complete schedule for the 2022 season, which is loaded with excitement, in addition to an explosive kickoff featuring the clash between the Buffalo Bills and the reigning champions, the Los Angeles Rams.
All 32 franchises are dreaming of having a spectacular campaign, some with greater possibilities, as they have squads full of stars and others with the illusion of signing a year with a winning record.
Among the highlights is the return of Tom Brady, after announcing his retirement and coming out of retirement between one season and another, as well as the first-ever game in Germany.
The season will kick off next Thursday, September 8, and will end on February 12, 2023, with the celebration of Super Bowl LVII, which will be played at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
A simply explosive start will be the one the NFL will have in the 2022 season when in the opening game, the Bills will go to SoFi Stadium to visit the Los Angeles Rams, UEFA champions of the league.
