Packers 2026 NFL Schedule Released for Jordan Love, Josh Jacobs' Playoff Push

The Green Bay Packers have reached the playoffs in three consecutive seasons, but they're looking to get over the hump and make the Super Bowl this year.

Ahead of the Packers' championship quest, the team released its schedule for the 2026 campaign.

Full schedule information available on the team's official website.

Analysis

The NFC North was one of the toughest divisions in 2025, with each team winning at least nine games.

The Chicago Bears took the division crown with an 11-6 record, but it should be anyone's title to win this year. The Packers

The Packers could be without key players like tight end Tucker Kraft and pass rusher Micah Parsons to start the year, which could make the first few weeks of the season much more difficult.

Parsons' production speaks for itself as he's firmly established himself as one of the best pass rushers in the game. Kraft, who is entering his fourth season, has quickly become a significant part of the Packers' offense.

If Green Bay can get through the first half of the season without too many struggles, the Packers could close things out strong, assuming they're fully healthy by then.

Even with Kraft and Parsons potentially out to start the year, Green Bay should be able to compete for a division title.

Pivotal Matchups

Each of the Packers' six divisional games will be key this year since the race for the NFC North title will very likely be close late in the season.

Green Bay should be able to manage teams like the Atlanta Falcons and New York Jets, so picking up a few wins against tough teams like the Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams will be very important.

The Packers don't have to go undefeated to win the division, but they won't be able to afford very many slip-ups.
