ESPN, the so called "Worldwide World Leader in Sports" and the home of Monday Night Football, has officially announced their 2021 schedule plans.

ESPN will produce the most-ever amount of regular season games that the company has done in a single season since ESPN's 1979 launch. ESPN will have 19 regular season contests this season: 17 Monday Night Football games (Weeks 1-17) and a Saturday, Week 18 doubleheader on Saturday, January 8, 2022. This season will mark the first time that ESPN/ABC will be involved in televising at least one NFL game a week for the complete duration of the season.

The 2021 Monday Night Football schedule starts with ABC simulating ESPN's broadcast of the Week 1 Baltimore Ravens vs. Las Vegas Raiders matchup. This Sept. 13 game will be the first time that fans will be allowed inside of the Raiders' new digs, Allegiant Stadium.

The last two MVP's, Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay) and Lamar Jackson (Baltimore), will both be involved in ESPN's MNF 2021 plans. Rodgers' Packers will host the Detroit Lions in Week 2 (Sept. 20) while Jackson's Ravens will be back on Monday night in Week 5 when they host Carson Wentz and the Indianapolis Colts (Oct. 11).

Tom Brady (Tampa Bay) and Patrick Mahomes (Kansas City), the last two Super Bowl MVP's, will both appear on Monday Night Football this year. Tampa Bay and Kansas City will host Saquon Barkley and the New York Giants. The Giants-Chiefs game will be on Monday, Nov. 1 (Week 8) and the Giants-Buccaneers game will be on Monday, Nov. 22 (Week 11). 

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson will both appear twice this season. The Steelers will host the Chicago Bears on Monday, Nov. 8 (Week 9) and the Cleveland Browns on Monday, Jan. 3 (Week 17). The Seahawks will host the New Orleans Saints on Monday, Oct. 25 (Week 7) and visit the Washington Football Team during Thanksgiving weekend, Monday, Nov. 29 (Week 12).

All 14 teams that made last season's NFL playoffs will appear on Monday Night Football this year. The Ravens, Bills, Bears, Rams, Saints, Steelers and Seahawks appear twice.

Monday Night Football will nationally feature the first Eagles-Cowboys game of the season as Philly visits Dallas in Week 3. Expect rookies DeVonta Smith (Eagles) and Micah Parsons (Cowboys) to their marks to this historic, once-of-a-kind, rivalry. 

Mid-season, Matthew Stafford and the Rams visit the 49ers on Nov. 15 (Week 10). Monday Night Football concludes its 2021 schedule with four divisional games in the final five weeks, including the season finale of Browns at Steelers (last year's AFC Wild Card Game re-match) on Jan. 3 (Week 17).

3 Monday Night Football games features division winners from last season: Buffalo at Tennessee on Oct. 11, New Orleans at Seattle on Oct. 25 & Seattle at Washington on Nov. 29.

Plus, Tua Tagovailoa (Dolphins QB) will make his Monday Night Football debut in Week 16 as the Dolphins travel to the Big Easy to take on the Saints (Dec. 27).

During the final week of the season, on Saturday, January 8th, ESPN (with ABC simulcast) will air two games at 4:15 PM (ET) and 8:15 PM (ET) that feature playoff implications. These two games will be determined towards the end of the regular season.

ESPN's Monday Night Football team of Steve Levy, Louis Riddick, Brian Griese and Lisa Salters will all return this season. Officiating expert John Parry will also be back, joining the MNF team when needed.

ESPN will also televise two preseason games this August. First up, the Chiefs visit the Cardinals on Friday, August 20th at 8:00 PM (ET). Then, on Monday, August 23rd, #1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars go to New Orleans for a preseason exhibition with the Saints at 8:00 PM (ET).

Following ESPN's extensive regular-season lineup, ABC and ESPN will air a Wild Card game and the 2021 Pro Bowl from Las Vegas' Allegiant Stadium.

NBC's Sunday Night Football Again Sets Bar High for Top NFL Games in 2021

NBC Sports to Present 25 NFL Games during 2020 Season, including Super Bowl LVI from SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Calif.

Tampa Bay, Kansas City, Dallas, Green Bay & San Francisco to Appear at the Maximum "SNF" limit of 3 times

NBC Sports, home of Sunday Night Football, has announced its 2021 NFL schedule. NBC will capture the biggest NFL season ever, from NFL Kickoff 2021 in Tampa on September 9th to the final game of the 2021 NFL season, Super Bowl LVI on February 13th, 2022, from SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Calif.

Sunday Night Football has been America's No. 1 primetime television show for 10 consecutive seasons (2011-2020).

NBC will feature 25 NFL games this season. 20 regular-season contests, 4 playoff contests, and 1 preseason game. This will mark NBC's highest NFL output since Sunday Night Football on NBC started back in 2006.

This year, Sunday Night Football will host some of the league's most exciting matchups. In addition, 9 games featuring two 2020 playoff-bound teams, including last season's AFC Championship re-match with Buffalo at Kansas City on October 10th (Week 5).

Every team that qualified for the 2020 NFL playoffs will make at least 1 SNF appearance this season. NBC will show the defending Super Bowl champs Tampa Bay Buccaneers, defending AFC champions Kansas City Chiefs, and the defending NFC North champions Green Bay Packers three times each.

NBC's schedule begins with NFL Kickoff 2021 on Thursday, September 9th, as the defending Super Bowl Champions Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tom Brady host the Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott, coming off a nasty October 2020 injury. Cowboys vs. Buccaneers is live from Tampa's Raymond James Stadium (the site of last year's Super Bowl LV).

In NBC's Sunday Night Football opener on Sunday, September 12th, fans will get their first dibs of the new SoFi Stadium as Chicago Bears visit the Los Angeles Rams. Two new quarterbacks enter their fold for Chicago in veteran Andy Dalton and first-round draft choice Justin Fields. Bears-Rams will also showcase Khalil Mack and the debut of new Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford.

On Sunday, September 19th, NBC presents a marquee quarterback matchup from M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. 2018 NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs visit 2019 NFL MVP Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. It shall be a fun one with plenty of points!

Tom Brady's return to Foxborough is set for Sunday, October 3rd (Week 4) as the Buccaneers visit the Patriots. Brady won six Super Bowls in New England and earned the esteemed distinction of being the most successful quarterback in NFL history.

An AFC West rivalry headlines SNF on Sunday, November 14th (Week 10) as the Chiefs visit the Raiders at Allegiant Stadium. Last year's game saw four lead changes in the fourth quarter. Patrick Mahomes threw a game-winning touchdown with less than 30 seconds remaining. Chiefs-Raiders will be the first SNF game with fans allowed in attendance.

This year, NBC's Thanksgiving night game on Thursday, November 25th (Week 12) shall be a great one as Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills lock horns with Demario Davis and the New Orleans Saints at 8:20 PM (ET). Then, Thanksgiving weekend continues with Sunday Night Football on Sunday, November 28th at 8:20 PM (ET) as Baker Mayfield and the Browns battle Lamar's Ravens in an AFC North hookup.

NBC will also carry a preseason game on Sunday, August 29th at 8:00 PM (ET) as the Cleveland Browns visit the Atlanta Falcons.

Once NBC's regular-season schedule is completed, NBC will air four postseason games. Two Wild Card games during the January 15-16 weekend, one Divisional Playoff game on January 22 and 23, and finally, Super Bowl LVI on Sunday, February 13th at SoFi Stadium.

FOX Sports Returns for 28th NFL Season, with Biggest NFL Regular-Season to Date to Boot

Thursday Night Football, Marquee 4:25 PM (ET) Games with "America's Game of the Week" & Browns-Packers on Christmas Day Highlight FOX's Coverage

Dallas Cowboys, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Green Bay Packers headline FOX's 2021 regular-season slate with more than 30 appearances between the three squads

The home of the National Football Conference (NFC) and the "NFL on FOX", FOX Sports has officially announced their 2021 NFL regular-season schedule. FOX will enter their 28th season of being one of the rightsholders for the National Football League. FOX's slate is again highlighted by the "America's Game of the Week" program, FOX's official name for their 4:25 PM (ET) doubleheader games.

FOX, which recently renewed its rights agreements with the NFL, will retain their role as the National Football Conference (NFC) television provider. These rights include the NFC Championship game every season and any major holiday games.

This season, Aaron Jones and the Green Bay Packers visit Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs on Veterans' Day Weekend (Week 9, 4:25 PM ET). Justin Fields and the Chicago Bears visit Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Day (Week 12, 12:30 PM ET). Jarvis Landry and the Cleveland Browns visit the Frozen Tundra of Lambeau Field to take on Green Bay on Christmas Day in a special Saturday edition of Thursday Night Football (Week 16, 4:30 PM ET).

The NFL on FOX schedule for 2021 will feature a bare minimum of 118 games. The Sunday afternoon lineup has 106 games, including 10 editions of America's Game of the Week. Some of the NFL's most popular teams, like the Dallas Cowboys, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Green Bay Packers, combine for more than 30 games on FOX. For Dallas and Tampa Bay, 10 FOX games are scheduled. In Green Bay's case, as they look to return to glory, 11 FOX games will be in their cards this season.

FOX continues to reach the biggest NFL markets, like New York and Los Angeles. With RB Saquon Barkley returning from injury, the New York Giants will make 12 FOX appearances while the Los Angeles Rams, with new-QB Matthew Stafford, will show up on FOX 12 times this season.

America's Game of the Week begins on Sunday, September 12, with a Week 1 matchup in New Orleans, as the Green Bay Packers take on the New Orleans Saints. Both Green Bay (NFC North) and New Orleans (NFC South) won their divisions last season. AGOTW features the defending Super Bowl Champions Tampa Bay Buccaneers twice and the defending AFC Champions Kansas City Chiefs.

Key America's Game of the Week games this year include Packers at Saints (Week 1), Buccaneers at Rams (Week 3), Packers at Chiefs (Week 9) & Cowboys at Chiefs (Week 11).

Thursday Night Football, in FOX's last season of holding down the rights alongside the NFL Network, kicks off in Week 5 on Thursday, October 7. That night, live from Seattle's Lumen Field, Tyler Lockett and the Seattle Seahawks host big Aaron Donald and the Los Angeles Rams in a 2020 NFC Wild Card Game re-match (Rams won that game).

In addition, FOX's Thursday Night slate features multiple Cleveland and Green Bay showings, serving as a backdrop for their Saturday afternoon Christmas Day showdown at Lambeau Field.

Top Thursday Night Football games include Buccaneers at Eagles (Week 6), Cowboys at Saints (Week 13), and Browns at Packers (Week 16).

Following FOX's regular-season coverage, the network will host a full amount of postseason games. FOX will televise an NFC Wild Card game, an NFC Divisional game, and an NFC Championship game this season.
