Sunday Night Football is back, and this year's loaded schedule will begin with a rematch and a reunion.
The Los Angeles Rams will visit the Motor City to face off against the Detroit Lions and wrap up the first Sunday of the 2024 NFL season. The game marks a rematch of last year's NFC wild card contest, where the Lions escaped with a 24-23 victory, as well as a chance for quarterbacks Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff to face their former teams.

Goff and the Lions are among the NFC favorites in 2024 after falling to the San Francisco 49ers in the conference title game last year. On the other side, the Rams will look to lean on Stafford, Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua and a high-octane offense following Aaron Donald's retirement.
The game marks the first Sunday Night Football game of the year, though NBC and Peacock will have already gotten the ball rolling on the 2024 season by then. The Kansas City Chiefs are hosting the Baltimore Ravens on NBC and Peacock in the annual NFL Kickoff Game on Thursday, Sept. 5, and Peacock is the exclusive home for the Philadelphia Eagles' contest against the Green Bay Packers in Brazil on Friday, Sept. 6.
