Our favorite videos about the NFL schedule release

The NFL has released its full schedule for the 2026 season.

We now know exactly where and when all 32 teams will play each week this fall.

It’s pretty exciting, isn’t it?

Oh, and all 32 teams also released schedule release videos, with all the Easter eggs, inside jokes, pop culture references, and head-scratching moments you can handle.

Now that East exciting.

As always, the teams offered us a wide variety of visual experiences. There are parodies galore (the Rams adapted the opening credits from “Napoleon Dynamite” and even included a newspaper called the Los Angeles Hard Times; the Las Vegas Raiders produced a new version of “Step Brothers” featuring quarterbacks Fernando Mendoza and Kirk Cousins; the Kansas City Chiefs took on the QVC trading network).

Some videos were clearly intended to appeal strictly to fans of that team, like the Philadelphia Eagles’ 14-minute offering (by far the longest of the bunch) of five players giving their “unfiltered reactions” to every game on their schedule and the Pittsburgh Steelers piece that lovingly mocks local fans with numerous references that only true Yinzers would understand.

While many of the videos were high-tech and well-rehearsed, a handful featured unscripted entertainment, like New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston drawing pictures to help fans guess opposing teams and Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers surprising a few super fans at their wedding.

Here are five of our favorite videos from this year’s harvest. It’s a extremely subjective list, but the stakes might be high — the Seattle Seahawks had our No. 1 video last May and won the Super Bowl nine months later.
