The National Football League kicks off its Week 7 slate on Sunday, October 25, 2026, featuring the first-ever game in Paris alongside a compressed schedule caused by European daylight saving time shifts.
Paris Game at Stade de France Opens Sunday Schedule
The Pittsburgh Steelers face the New Orleans Saints at the Stade de France, marking the league’s inaugural fixture in the French capital. Kickoff for the international matchup is scheduled for 14:30. Broadcasters RTL, Sky, and the NFL Game Pass carry the live television and streaming coverage.
Shifted Kickoff Times Across European Time Zones
Sunday’s schedule features earlier kickoff times than usual for European audiences due to time-change mechanics. Central European Time shifts back to winter time overnight Saturday into Sunday, while the United States does not adjust clocks until the following week. This temporary reduction of the time difference between Germany and the U.S. Eastern Time zone from six hours to five hours moves the traditional 19:00 kickoff window up to 18:00.
Seven matches begin simultaneously at 18:00, featuring key divisional rivalries such as the Cincinnati Bengals visiting the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North and the Carolina Panthers hosting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC South. Additional early-slot matchups include the San Francisco 49ers against the Atlanta Falcons, the Indianapolis Colts against the Minnesota Vikings, the Miami Dolphins against the New York Jets, the New York Giants against the Houston Texans, and the Cleveland Browns against the Tennessee Titans.
Late Afternoon and Primetime Matchups
The second game window brings action at 21:05 with the Denver Broncos playing the Arizona Cardinals. That contest leads into a 21:25 slate featuring the Detroit Lions hosting the Green Bay Packers in the NFC North, alongside the Las Vegas Raiders playing the Los Angeles Rams. The Kansas City Chiefs visit the Seattle Seahawks for the Sunday Night Game at 01:20.
