2022 NFL Preseason Schedule Released: Full Team-by-Team Matchups, Dates, Start Times

Tim DanielsJun 7, 2022

The NFL announced the finalized schedule for its 2022 preseason on Tuesday, which includes the Hall of Fame Game on Aug. 4 followed by three full weeks of exhibition play.

Here's a look at the team-by-team slate:

And the national broadcast schedule:

As always, the most notable part of training camp and the preseason is the quarterback battles. There are at least four on tap this summer:

  • Carolina Panthers:ย Sam Darnold vs. Matt Corral vs. P.J. Walker
  • Pittsburgh Steelers:ย Mitchell Trubisky vs. Kenny Pickett vs. Mason Rudolph
  • San Francisco 49ers:ย Trey Lance vs. Jimmy Garoppolo
  • Seattle Seahawks:ย Geno Smith vs. Drew Lock vs. Jacob Eason

Other QB competitions could emerge if the Atlanta Falcons' Marcus Mariota struggles, Cleveland Browns' Deshaun Watson is suspended or injuries arise.

The Niners and Browns situations are particularly important since those teams could be championship contenders with strong quarterback play.

Meanwhile, the preseason is also the first proving ground for this year's rookies, a group led by No. 1 overall pick Travon Walker, a defensive end from Georgia selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Walker emerged as the top choice from a class without a consensus No. 1 prospect despite modest production in college, including 9.5 sacks in 29 appearances.

In May, the 21-year-old edge-rusher said his first task with the Jags was converting to outside linebacker, which includes a lot more coverage assignments.

"Just strictly working on outside linebacker things in practice I feel like I'm truly getting more comfortable with the position," Walker said. "There's always room for improvement. Coming from Georgia, there was a lot of techniques we went over but also coming here [there are a lot]."

Walker and the Jaguars will be featured in the Hall of Fame Game against the Las Vegas Raiders followed by contests against the Browns, Steelers and Falcons, so there's probably no team in the NFL that will play more meaningful preseason snaps.

The exhibition schedule wraps up Aug. 28 and the regular season kicks off Sept. 8 when the reigning Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams host the Buffalo Bills.
