NFL Schedule Released: See Key Cleveland Browns Games In 2021

CLEVELAND — Football fans everywhere can start circling the wins and losses, and begin making fall plans, now that the 2021 NFL regular season schedule has been revealed. The 2021 Cleveland Browns schedule features 10 home games and seven away games, including six divisional contests and other intriguing matchups.

The Browns open the season against the Kansas City Chiefs, who knocked Cleveland out of the playoffs last year. Cleveland will seek revenge as it again travels to Arrowhead Stadium.

The Browns will also play three prime-time games this season, including a Week 17 matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The 2021 season will be the longest in the history of the NFL, as the league approved an expansion from 16 to 17 games earlier in the offseason. In the new scheduling format, all American Football Conference teams will host an additional game in odd years, and all National Football Conference teams get an extra home game in even years.

The NFL will kick off the 2021 regular season on Thursday, Sept. 9, when the defending Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the Dallas Cowboys.

Three games are scheduled for Thanksgiving, which falls on Nov. 25 this year. The Chicago Bears will visit the Detroit Lions before the Las Vegas Raiders play at the Dallas Cowboys and the Buffalo Bills go to New Orleans to play the Saints in the holiday nightcap.

With the regular season extended an extra week, the traditional Week 17 division rivalry matchups will be held in Week 18.

The Cleveland Browns will play their final regular season game of the season on Sunday, Jan. 9, 2022, against the Cincinnati Bengals.
