Week 18 NFL schedule: Game times for all 16 matchups on January 8-9

The NFL always waits until all relevant action is completed from the penultimate week of the season before releasing the game dates and times for final weekend of play. That’s to make sure no team gets an inherent advantage by knowing what they’ll need to do to reach the playoffs, or how to manipulate a game to balance rest against needing to win.

So teams where playoff implications apply are started at the same time as much as possible.

Here is the complete NFL schedule for Week 18 of the 2021 season. Where no TV network is listed, the NFL will announce the national TV channel later on Monday. All odds are the latest from DraftKings Sportsbook:
