NFL Week 2 2026: Which Games Are Done, and What Time Do the Rest Kick Off?
If you’re trying to figure out what’s left to watch this week, here’s where things stand.
Already decided
The Buffalo Bills beat the Detroit Lions 41-31 in Thursday’s Week 2 opener. That game is final — nothing left to see there.
What’s still ahead
Only one remaining matchup has a confirmed kickoff time in the available reporting:
- Cincinnati at Houston — Sunday, 1 p.m. ET
The rest of the week’s games are set but don’t come with listed start times in the source material:
- Jacksonville at Denver (Broncos looking to bounce back after a 31-10 loss to Kansas City; Jaguars coming off a 34-10 win over Cleveland)
- New Orleans at Baltimore (Ravens receiver Zay Flowers is listed as doubtful)
- Green Bay at the Jets
- Carolina at Atlanta
- New York Giants at the Los Angeles Rams — this one is on Monday, back in L.A. after the Rams’ Week 1 loss to San Francisco in Australia
⚠️ For exact kickoff times on the games not listed above, check the NFL’s official schedule — this recap only confirms the Sunday 1 p.m. ET Bengals-Texans start time and the general Monday slot for Rams-Giants.
Worth keeping in mind
Week 1 was unusually high-scoring across the league, and it’s still early enough in the season that a single result — good or bad — isn’t treated as a reliable signal for how a team’s year will go.
