Dallas Cowboys schedule: NFL officially announces full 2026 slate

The NFL season grows closer and closer. Everybody has closed the book on the 2025 season, now shifting focus to what’s to come in 2026. One of the final steps to getting there is seeing the schedule release go live. And on Thursday night, the Dallas Cowboys found out what their 18-week slate would look like.

Opponents for the 2026 season have been known for quite some time. As usual, the Cowboys are set to play six games against NFC East opponents. A second-place finish in the division last year means matchups vs. other second-place teams also take place. Dallas will then face two other divisions, the AFC South and NFC West.

To make it 17 games, another team from the AFC is thrown in there. This season, the Baltimore Ravens get the honor. A jam-packed schedule for sure, you can check out the full thing here.
