We have a time and a date for the times and the dates.
As confirmed this afternoon, the NFL is set to announce the full regular-season schedule for the 2026 campaign on Thursday, May 14. For the Carolina Panthers, who are fresh off capturing the NFC South title, the slate will be their first first-place schedule since 2015.
Carolina’s opponents are as follows:
Panthers’ 2026 home opponents
- Atlanta Falcons
- New Orleans Saints
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Chicago Bears
- Detroit Lions
- Baltimore Ravens
- Cincinnati Bengals
- Seattle Seahawks
- Denver Broncos
Panthers’ 2026 away opponents
- Atlanta Falcons
- New Orleans Saints
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Green Bay Packers
- Minnesota Vikings
- Cleveland Browns
- Pittsburgh Steelers
- Philadelphia Eagles
Given their status as division champions, the Panthers may get an extra prime-time outing or two this upcoming year. They were scheduled for just one in 2025—a Monday night matchup against former Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey and the San Francisco 49ers that resulted in a 20-9 loss.
The Panthers will also be looking to hunt down their first winning season since 2017.
