The 2026 NFL schedule dropped Thursday night, and if you've got a Packers fan in your life, you already know the rest of the year just got organized around 17 Sundays. They've memorized the dates. They've already started arguing about the primetime spots. They've probably texted you about it.
Here's what your Packers fan will be watching this season — and what that means if you're the one shopping for them.
The games on the fridge
A handful of games per season set the tone for a Packers fan's whole year. Here are the dates that'll matter most in 2026:
- Thursday, September 24 — Falcons at Packers (Thursday Night Football). Lambeau Field primetime in Week 3. Amazon.
- Wednesday, November 25 — Packers at Rams (Thanksgiving Eve). First-ever Thanksgiving Eve game. Streaming on Netflix at 8 PM ET. Whole new tradition.
Why this matters for the gift you're picking
Packers fans own the team. Literally. They've got the stock certificate framed. They take it personally.
When you're shopping for the Packers fan in your life — your dad, your husband, your father-in-law, your kid, your grandparent — you're not buying them "a sports gift." You're buying them their team. The good news: that makes the gift easy.
Packers gifts that actually land
Featured plaque: Our Jordan Love Plaque is the wall piece — real licensed cards mounted in our Westchester shop, ready to display the moment it lands. The exact card may vary slightly from the one pictured — you'll always get a genuine licensed card of this player.
The 2025 + 2024 combo: The 2025 + 2024 Donruss Factory Sealed Team Set 2-Pack is the foundational gift — both years of Donruss, both sealed in their original wrappers, this season's rookies stacked next to last season's established core. Open both, display both, or gift one and stash the other. Either way it's the freshest, most complete way to get the Packers on a Packers fan's shelf.
