The NFL will release the full 2024 regular-season schedule. While we’ve known each team’s opponents since the conclusion of the 2023 season, we’ll finally learn when each game will be played.
For many teams, this means lots of cross-country and even out-of-country road trips and for others, they get to stay close to home. For the Chicago Bears, they’re smack dab in the middle between the greatest and least distance to be traveled during the 2024 season — which includes a trip to London in Week 6 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Here are all 32 teams ranked by distance traveled (according to Google Earth) from the Los Angeles Chargers (greatest) to the Washington Commanders (least).
