The first NFL training camp for the 2026 season will officially open today.
The Seahawks’ rookies will report to training camp today, making Seattle’s rookies the first players in the league to report. As is customary for the defending Super Bowl champions, the Seahawks play at home in the first game of the regular season, and they’re getting an early start on camp. Seattle hosts New England in a Super Bowl rematch on Wednesday, September 9, to begin the 2026 season.
Tomorrow the 49ers’ rookies report. Then the next wave of reports comes on Tuesday, when the Bills, Panthers, Texans, Dolphins and Patriots all welcome their rookies to camp.
The Panthers and Cardinals will be the first teams to have their whole squads in training camp, with both of them having veterans in camp on Wednesday, July 22. The Panthers face the Cardinals in the first preseason game, the Hall of Fame Game on August 6.
Most teams’ veterans will report on July 28, the date on which every NFL team will have its full squad in camp.
