Patrick Mahomes and the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs will kick off the 2023 NFL season against the upstart Detroit Lions in a matchup of high-powered offenses. It’s just a taste of what is to come as the NFL schedule release will be broadcast Thursday, May 11. It will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial).

Meanwhile, Aaron Rodgers will make his New York Jets debut on “Monday Night Football” against the Buffalo Bills.

Coming off their second championship in four seasons, the Chiefs will host the Lions on Sept. 7 on “Thursday Night Football.” The Lions finished 9-8 last season after a 1-6 start and knocked Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers out of the playoffs with a 20-16 victory at Lambeau Field in the final regular-season game.

Mahomes, the two-time NFL MVP, led the Chiefs to a 38-35 comeback win over the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl.

The NFL will release the full schedule on Thursday night.

Other games revealed Thursday include a rematch of the NFC championship game in Week 13. Jalen Hurts and the Eagles will host the San Francisco 49ers on Dec. 3. The Eagles knocked quarterback Brock Purdy out of the conference title game on their way to a dominant 31-7 win. Purdy had elbow surgery in the offseason but should be ready by the time the teams meet again.
