The 2024 NFL season is over, with the Philadelphia Eagles crowned Super Bowl champions for just the second time thanks to their surprisingly convincing victory over the Kansas City Chiefs at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.

Football fans across the country, and indeed further afield, are now wondering what they’re going to do with their time now that no games are on the horizon. According to the NFL’s recent format, the Eagles will kick off the 2025 season with a home game, which will bring to an end a seemingly eternal wait.

The 2025 NFL season will start on Thursday, September 4, 2025. The regular season will run through to Sunday, January 4, 2026, with the postseason action slated to begin the following weekend on Saturday, January 10, 2026.
