The NFL's 2026 schedule is starting to take shape, and while the Arizona Cardinals won't be packing their bags for an international trip, there's plenty of drama brewing. The league's first-ever game in Paris, France, is set to happen in Week 7, but it'll be the Pittsburgh Steelers, not the Cardinals, taking on the New Orleans Saints as the designated home team, according to Mike DeFabo of The Athletic.

For Cardinals fans, this means no croissants and Eiffel Tower views for their team—but the schedule puzzle is far from complete. While no Cardinals games have been officially announced yet, leaks and reports have given us a sneak peek at which weeks they won't face certain opponents. For instance, we know they're skipping Week 1 matchups with the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, Denver Broncos, and Kansas City Chiefs, as well as NFC West rivals San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams. Week 2 is off the table for a clash with the Detroit Lions, and Week 12 won't feature the Cowboys or Philadelphia Eagles.

The full 2026 regular-season schedule drops Thursday at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. Arizona time), so mark your calendars. In the meantime, gear up for the season ahead with the latest Cardinals apparel and fan essentials—because whether they're playing in Paris or the desert, your team deserves your best look.
