DENVER – The Raiders won’t know their 2017 schedule until the league unveils it in April. We already know who they’ll play, but will wait for the where and when.
They’ll play the entire NFC East and AFC East, home and away games in their division and two other teams that were confirmed on Sunday night.
The Raiders will play a home game against the Baltimore Ravens and a road contest at the Tennessee Titans. Those opponents were determined by the season’s final standings. The Silver and Black finished in second place, meaning they’ll play second-place squads from AFC divisions they wouldn’t otherwise see. In this case, it’s the AFC North and AFC South.
