The NFL 2025 Preseason will begin in early August, offering the first competitive look at roster bubble players, rookies, and position battles. Meanwhile, starters typically sit out to avoid injury and preserve their workload for the regular season.

The Preseason unfolds over three weeks, kicking off with the Hall of Fame Game. Week 2 serves as the de facto dress rehearsal, as starters often play into the second half, offering bettors a better insight. Week 3 functions like a final tune-up before the regular season begins.

NFL Preseason Format & Structure

The Preseason kicks off with the Hall of Fame Game on Thursday, July 31, 2025, as the Chargers visit the Lions in Canton, Ohio.

Teams generally play three exhibition games across three weeks in August, except the Chargers and Lions, who play four games, including the Hall of Fame Game.

The Preseason wraps on August 24, followed by a one-week break before the regular season begins September 4, 2025.

Coaches often rest regular starters, using NFL preseason games and joint practices to evaluate fringe players. Most teams bring 90 players into camp and must trim to the 53-man roster ahead of Week 1 of the season. Preseason game plans tend to run simpler, rote plays, preserving secrets for the NFL temporada regular.

Training Camp & Key Storylines

Media experts and reporters have highlighted intense position battles, rookies striving to break through, and veterans fighting for roster spots across all 32 teams.

The Patriots’ camp is drawing local buzz, as young QB Drake Maye and veteran WR Stefon Diggs showcase strong chemistry, while third-year guard Cole Strange attempts to bounce back after a below‑par 2024 season.

At Bengals camp, fans watch for breakout draft rookies and backups stepping up, amid coverage of ongoing contract disputes with veteran Trey Hendrickson.

Other teams, such as the Browns, Colts, Saints, and Giants feature notable QB competitions during training camp, which will shape preseason usage and depth charts.

Teams That Improved the Most in Offseason

A number of teams have earned high praise in offseason power rankings, translating to excitement in preseason evaluation.

O Los Angeles Rams received ESPN’s top offseason grade, thanks to trading away Cooper Kupp and signing Davante Adams, strengthening their receiving corps and maintaining a promising young defense.

The Washington Commanders are widely seen as Top 10 contenders in the NFC East, bolstered by moves like acquiring Laremy Tunsil and Deebo Samuel, and protecting young QB Jayden Daniels—2024’s Offensive Rookie of the Year—while drafting strongly on the offensive line and cornerback position.

The Buffalo Bills, returning 84% of their 2024 roster, including MVP Josh Allen, continue to rank in the top three teams in power ranking coverage and have added depth on both the defensive line and secondary.

The Chicago Bears also drew major attention, with strong offseason moves under GM Ryan Poles and potential immediate impact from quarterback Caleb Williams, stirring talk of them becoming instant contenders.

Teams like the 49ers, Chiefs, and Vikings also received strong ratings in multi-source rankings due to consistently high drafts and key acquisitions.

Players to Watch & Roster Bubble Standouts

Preseason is the stage where emerging stars often first shine. Some intriguing names and contests to monitor:

Rookies and swing players—especially undrafted or lower‑draft picks—aim to earn roster spots or practice-squad roles.

Early coverage mentions Edgerrin Cooper (LB, Packers), T.J. Sanders (Bills rookie), and other UDFA or late-round breakouts as players to monitor even before the Preseason begins.

On the defensive side, new arrivals like Robert Spillane (Patriots), Talanoa Hufanga, and Dre Greenlaw (Broncos) may lean on camp evaluations to determine rotations and starters.

In the Patriots camp, offensive line rookies Will Campbell and Cole Strange are particularly under the microscope. Meanwhile, Kyle Williams (rookie WR) generated buzz with big catches early in camp.

Teams That Could Surprise

While elite teams like the Rams, Commanders, and Bills headline offseason praise, several squads with uncertain QB situations or young core players could overperform:

The Patriots are hoping for a breakout season with Maye and a revamped receiving unit, and preseason reps might shape their Week 1 depth and schemes.

The Browns and Giants each feature QB competitions that could produce unexpected starters. Preseason camp and games may answer critical questions for both franchises.

Seattle offers interest in position battles at WR (Jake Bobo) and the defensive line (Mike Morris, Uchenna Nwosu), with Sam Darnold expected to lead the offense. Preseason provides a good look at those players’ potential roles.
