Browns' 2026 Schedule: No International Games!

The Cleveland Browns' complete 2026 NFL schedule is set to be unveiled, offering a glimpse into their path toward improving upon last season's 5-12 record. As per usual, the Browns will face each of their AFC North opponents twice, playing one home game and one away game against each.

Their non-division schedule includes four games against teams from the AFC South and four from the NFC South. This means home matchups against the Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Atlanta Falcons, and Carolina Panthers, with road games against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Tennessee Titans, New Orleans Saints, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Additionally, the Browns will play three games against teams that finished last in their respective divisions during the 2025 season. These include a home game against the Las Vegas Raiders and road contests against the New York Giants and New York Jets. Notably, the Browns are the sole team in the AFC North not participating in an international game this season.

This upcoming season also marks a significant coaching transition. Todd Monken has been appointed as the new head coach, replacing Kevin Stefanski. Monken, who previously served as the offensive coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens for three seasons, brings a new dynamic to the team as a first-time NFL head coach. Stefanski's departure follows a six-year tenure, during which he led the Browns to the playoffs twice.
