After experimenting with releasing the schedule during the second week of April, the NFL has mostly shifted to releasing the schedule during the third week of April, between April 15-21 in recent years. Sometimes, if Easter occurs during this week, it can shift the schedule up.

However, Ben Fischer of the Sports Business Journal has reported that this year could see the latest NFL schedule release ever: the second week of May. This would mark the second year in a row that the schedule will come out after the NFL Draft. This allows the league to take into account results of the draft when determining prime-time games.
