The 2025 season will reportedly start at Lambeau Field for the Detroit Lions.

Fox Sports insider Jordan Schultz reported the Lions will visit Green Bay in Week 1, a game slated for a 4:25 p.m. kickoff, meaning it’ll be in one of the national slots on Fox.

The NFL is set to release the full season schedule on Wednesday night, but per usual, leaks are already making it to the internet.

The Lions have one of the hardest schedules in the league, with a gauntlet of road games vs. Super Bowl contenders, so they’ll have a good handful of primetime games.

The Lions will be thrilled to play at Lambeau in September, instead of in the winter months. Detroit has won four of the last five matchups vs. Green Bay.
