Could the NFL’s 18-Game Season Become a Dangerous Game Changer for Player Safety?
The NFL remains a money-making machine. But there are only so many revenue streams to grow, only so many tickets to be sold and only so many TV deals to reach.
One area in which the league can add more profit is in expanding the schedule, but the NFL already knows that with more games comes the opportunity to expand the international portion of the schedule and potentially another broadcast deal.
Itâs why the league increased from a 16-game schedule to 17 games starting in the 2021 season. It was the first major change to the format of the regular season since it expanded from 14 games to 16 in 1978.
