The National Football League has not announced a date and time for its annual schedule release, but has confirmed it will not be pushed back from mid-April, per Pro Football Talk.

There had been rumors the release date would be pushed back a week or two because of the NFL Draft being moved to May, but NFL spokesman Greg Aiello confirmed that would not be the case. While he did not offer up an exact date, it is thought to be either April 15 or 22 considering it has been unveiled on a Tuesday in the past.
Of all 256 regular season games, the only thing we can assume is that the Seattle Seahawks will be opening up at home on a Thursday night to kick off the season, a recent custom for the Super Bowl champion.
Last year, the Baltimore Ravens played on the opening Thursday but were forced to play on the road due to a scheduling conflict with the MLB's Baltimore Orioles.
