The Detroit Lions will attempt to build upon the strong finish to the 2022 season with more prominent expectations in 2023. The sequence of games sets up for the Lions to get a lot more public visibility and divergent time slots in the upcoming season.
Starting with the Week 1 kickoff trip to face the champion Chiefs in Kansas City, the Lions have at least four games outside of the typical 1 p.m. ET Sunday kickoff.
Here’s the Detroit Lions schedule for the 2023 season, with the final two weeks subject to flex scheduling options. All times are 1 p.m. ET unless otherwise indicated.
