Download Redskins 2017-18 Schedule For Android Calendar

The Washington Redskins have released their 2017 regular season schedule, which includes five primetime games on the 16-game slate including back-to-back Thursday night NFC East matchups in November.

While we're still more than four months away from the regular season opener for the Washington Redskins, the NFL took one step closer to football being back with the release of the regular season schedule Thursday evening.

The Washington Redskins will begin the 2017 season against the Philadelphia Eagles in a 1 p.m. matchup on Sunday, Sept. 10 at FedExField. That will be followed by a West Coast trip to California to face the Los Angeles Rams, who are now led, of course, by former Redskins offensive coordinator Sean McVay.

Following that Week 2 matchup, the Redskins will participate in back-to-back primetime games. First, Washington will host the Oakland Raiders in a Sunday Night Football matchup on Sept. 24. Eight days later, the Redskins will travel to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday, Oct. 2.

After a Week 5 bye, the Redskins will return to FedExField on Sunday, Oct. 15, to host the San Francisco 49ers.

The team's third primetime matchup will take place in Week 7, as the Redskins will make the short commute to Lincoln Financial Field to take on the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football.

Following the completion of Washington's season series with the Eagles, the Redskins will host a 4:25 p.m. game on Sunday, Oct. 29, against the Dallas Cowboys before traveling back west to play the Seattle Seahawks. Then the Redskins will head back to FedExField to once again host the Minnesota Vikings before traveling to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome for the first time since the 2012 regular season opener to take on the New Orleans Saints.

Washington's final two games in the month of November will be played on consecutive Thursdays for the first time in franchise history, as the Redskins will host a Thanksgiving night game against the New York Giants before traveling to AT&T Stadium seven days later to clash with the Cowboys.

The Redskins will take one final regular season flight to California when they play the Los Angeles Chargers at the StubHub Center on Sunday, Dec. 10 before the only two-game homestand of the season when Washington hosts the Arizona Cardinals and Denver Broncos in consecutive weeks.

Finally, the Redskins will complete the 2017 schedule on the road against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., on New Year's Eve.

This will be the Redskins' first matchup against the Chiefs on Monday Night Football.
The Redskins won their most recent Monday Night Football road game, a 20-17 overtime victory against the Dallas Cowboys in 2014. A road win on Monday Night Football in 2017 would give the Redskins consecutive victories in Monday night road games for the first time since 2005 and 2007 (at Dallas and at Philadelphia, respectively).
A Redskins win would be the team's second win against the Chiefs all-time and its first in Kansas City. A victory would snap a six-game losing streak to the Chiefs dating back to 1992.
The Redskins will be seeking their first win against the Chiefs since earning a 27-12 home victory on Sept. 18, 1983.
A win by the Redskins would leave the Arizona Cardinals as the only active NFL franchise to have never earned a win at Arrowhead Stadium.
The back-to-back games against the Raiders and Chiefs in Weeks 3-4 mark the second straight schedule rotation in which the Redskins have faced AFC West opponents in consecutive weeks. The last time the Redskins faced AFC West opponents was in 2013, a year in which the Redskins faced the Denver Broncos and San Diego Chargers in back-to-back games in Weeks 8-9.

Week 6: vs. San Francisco 49ers

The game will be the Redskins first following a bye in Week 5. The Week 5 bye marks the Redskins' earliest off-week since a Week 5 bye in 2013.
A win against the 49ers would be the Redskins' 14th in a game directly following a bye week since byes were instituted in 1990.

A win would be the Redskins' first against the 49ers since a 52-17 victory at FedExField on Oct. 23, 2005.

The Redskins are 6-1 against Seattle in regular season games since 2000.
The Redskins will attempt to extend their three-game regular season winning streak in Seattle, dating back to 2002.
The game will be the teams' first meeting at CenturyLink Field since the Redskins scored 16 unanswered fourth-quarter points in a 23-17 win on Nov. 27, 2011.
Each of the last four meetings between the Redskins and Seahawks has been decided by 10 or fewer points.

Week 10: vs. Minnesota Vikings

The Redskins are 13-12 all-time against the Vikings, including postseason play.

The game will be the Redskins' first Thanksgiving Day contest against a team other than the Lions or Cowboys.

Week 13: at Dallas Cowboys

With back-to-back Thursday contests in 2017, the Redskins will play multiple Thursday contests in a single season for the first time in team history.
The Redskins are 4-4 all-time in Thursday games played on dates other than Thanksgiving.
The Redskins are attempting to snap a four-game losing streak in Thursday games other than Thanksgiving Day. A victory would be their first Thursday win outside of Thanksgiving since Dec. 6, 2007 vs. Chicago.
The Redskins have won two of their last three games at AT&T Stadium.
Despite falling to the Cowboys, 31-26, at AT&T Stadium last season, the game represented the Redskins' second of back-to-back 500-yard games on offense, the first such stretch in team history.
The Redskins will attempt to push their all-time record at AT&T Stadium to 4-5 since the facility's debut in 2009.

The Redskins have won seven straight home games against the Cardinals dating back to 1999.
The Redskins defeated the Cardinals in the first regular season game at FedExField (then known as Jack Kent Cooke Stadium), a 19-13 overtime victory on Sept. 14, 1997.
