The NFL will open its 2022 season where the final game of last season kicked off -- in Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium, as the Super Bowl-champion Los Angeles Rams host the Buffalo Bills on Thursday, Sept. 8, the teams announced.
The Bills-Rams matchup features elite quarterback play between Matthew Stafford and Josh Allen, who has guided the Bills to back-to-back playoff appearances. This game highlights a challenging schedule for the Rams, whose opponents have the league's highest winning percentage from last year (56.7%). NBC will broadcast the game.
The Monday Night Football opener offers a spicy storyline -- Russell Wilson making his Denver Broncos debut against his old team, the Seattle Seahawks, in Lumen Field.
