The Dodgers are only a few weeks into the 2017 season and Los Angeles was basking under clear skies with temperatures nearing 90 Friday, but that didn’t stop the NFL publicity juggernaut from unveiling the latest news for football fans.
The official team schedules for the upcoming season have now been unveiled, and the Los Angeles Rams will open the 2017 regular season by playing host to the Indianapolis Colts at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum Sept. 10.
The team will also play at the Coliseum the following Sunday, facing the Washington Redskins. First-year Rams coach Sean McVay was Washington’s offensive coordinator the past three seasons.
The seven-game schedule at the Coliseum also consists of games against the Seattle Seahawks (Oct. 8), Houston Texans (Nov. 12), New Orleans Saints (Nov. 26), Philadelphia Eagles (Dec. 10) and San Francisco 49ers (Dec. 31).
The Rams will play in London on Oct. 22 against the Arizona Cardinals in what is considered a home game.
The Rams first regular-season road game will be Sept. 21 against San Francisco in a Thursday night game. They will also play road games against the Dallas Cowboys (Oct. 1), Jacksonville Jaguars (Oct. 15), New York Giants (Nov. 5), Minnesota Vikings (Nov. 19), Arizona Cardinals (Dec. 3), Seattle Seahawks (Dec. 17) and Tennessee Titans (Dec. 24).
Individual game tickets will be available beginning Friday at TheRams.com/Tickets.
