Raiders 2022 schedule release: How to watch, and what we know so far
By Brad Weiss
The Las Vegas Raiders 2022 NFL schedule will be released later today, and here is all the information we know so far.
The time has finally come to find out what the Las Vegas Raiders 2022 NFL schedule will look like. This will be an exciting year for the Silver and Black, as they have a new head coach in place, and have brought in elite talent on both sides of the ball.
Last season, the Raiders navigated a tough schedule and had to deal with multiple issues on and off the field. In 2022, the hope is that they can make a return trip to the playoffs without so many issues, as they look to finally get back to the franchise being a perennial playoff contender.
To do so, they will likely have to navigate another tough schedule, as they were recently rated as having the third toughest schedule in the NFL by Pro Football Network.

Based on what we have heard, the Raiders are expected to play multiple prime-time games and could be kicking off the season on Monday Night Football once again. Last year, the Raiders beat the Baltimore Ravens in an epic battle, setting the stage for one of the better seasons the franchise has seen in quite some time.
Below, we take a look at their opponents ahead of the schedule being released:
- Home Opponents: Kansas City Chiefs, Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, Arizona Cardinals, Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, New England Patriots, San Francisco 49ers
- Away Opponents: Kansas City Chiefs, Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, Los Angeles Rams, Jacksonville Jaguars, New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers, Tennessee Titans, Seattle Seahawks
Derek Carr enters his ninth season at the helm of this offense, and he has more weapons this year than he has had in any other campaign. New head coach Josh McDaniels is one of the better offensive minds in the NFL, and with so many weapons at his disposal, you can expect this Raiders offense to be explosive in 2022.
The AFC West is absolutely loaded, and the Raiders do have to go on the road more than they are home in 2022. Still, they will also be facing a lot of teams with question marks at quarterback and based on the talent on both sides of the ball, the expectation is that the Raiders will at least be a Wild Card team this season.
