The NFL season opens tonight with the New England Patriots visiting the Seattle Seahawks in a Super Bowl rematch. Seattle hosts the game at Lumen Field and will be the home team for the kickoff match.
Live coverage begins at 7:00 PM ET on NBC and on Peacock, with the pregame show Football Night in America. The televised kickoff time is set for 8:20 PM ET.
The matchup revisits Super Bowl LX, when the Seahawks beat the Patriots 29-13 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. That result frames this season opener as an early measure for both teams.
