The 2026 NFL schedule dropped Thursday night, and if you've got a Raiders 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 Raiders 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 Raiders fan's whole year. Here are the dates that'll matter most in 2026:
- Sunday, October 18 — Bills at Raiders. Bills travel to Vegas. Late afternoon kick. 4:25 PM ET.
Why this matters for the gift you're picking
Raiders fans are a nation unto themselves. They moved from Oakland to Vegas and didn't lose a single believer in transit.
When you're shopping for the Raiders 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.
Raiders gifts that actually land
Featured plaque: Our Brock Bowers 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 Raiders on a Raiders fan's shelf.
The deep cut (7 years of Raiders cards): For the obsessive fan, our 7-year Donruss Raiders Team Set Bundle spans 7 seasons in a single gift — every era of recent Raiders football, all the rookies who became veterans, all the veterans who became legends. The kind of gift a real fan opens slowly.
The full collection: Browse every Raiders product we carry on our Las Vegas Raiders page — plaques in four sizes, team sets across multiple years, and player-specific gifts for every Raiders legend and current star.
Schedule release night is the loudest night of the offseason for a reason. Your fan's whole fall just took shape. Help them celebrate it.
