The new NFL season is approaching, and teams are preparing for another grueling year. The next program on the NFL calendar is training camp, one of the most important parts of the preseason.
Let's examine what training camp entails and whether players get days off during the activity.

Do players get days off during NFL training camp?
Yes, they do. NFL players get a day off during training camp. According to Article 35 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement:

"All players shall receive a mandatory day off on the day after the completion of the on-field acclimation period for players who are required to attend training camp on the mandatory reporting date for veteran players."
However, that's as good as it gets during training camp. Players are not given another day off until they begin the tune-up preseason games ahead of the regular season.
When does the 2024 NFL regular season start?
The 2024 NFL regular season will start with a game between the defending two-time Super Bowl winners, the Kansas City Chiefs, and Baltimore Ravens. The game will serve as a rematch for last year's AFC Championship Game and will feature two superstar quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson.
The Kansas City Chiefs enter the 2024 NFL season aiming to become the first team in league history to win three straight Super Bowls. They've come out victorious in the previous big games against the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers.
The Baltimore Ravens, on the other hand, will be aiming to put down a marker ahead of a pivotal 2024, as John Harbaugh aims to break Andy Reid and his squad’s hold on the league.
Other highlight games in Week 1 include the Philadelphia Eagles hosting the Green Bay Packers, the Cleveland Browns taking on the Dallas Cowboys, and Aaron Rodgers' New York Jets up against the San Francisco 49ers.
One game to look out for is the Browns versus Cowboys game, as Tom Brady will be making his broadcasting debut with Fox on that match day. It'll be interesting to see how the seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback makes the transition from the Gridiron to the booth.
