It’s also been revealed that the 2024 season-opener will be an AFC Championship Game rematch between the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens and will kick off on NBC and Peacock on September 5.
As for the extra game, it will be an afternoon fixture on said date coupled with ‘Sunday Night Football’ on December 22 and will mark the first time NBCUniversal hosts NFL games on both Saturday and Sunday since 1997.
