Fifty-four primetime games are on the slate, but more can be added throughout the 2023-24 season.

The primetime schedule will start when the reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs host the Detroit Lions Sept. 7 on NBC. That game is not officially considered a Thursday Night Football broadcast, despite being played on a Thursday.
