The 2022 NFL season kicks off with 16 Week 1 games, including Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson returning to the Pacific Northwest to face his former team, the Seahawks, in the first Monday Night Football game of the season, at Lumen Field in Seattle. Wilson spent 10 seasons with the Seahawks, winning the Super Bowl in the 2013 season, before being traded to the Broncos in March. Other key matchups include the Cowboys and Buccaneers squaring off in a rematch of the Week 1 classic from last season, and Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield facing his former team, the Browns.'
