nfl week 1 live updates news injuries scores and highlights

If the Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles, Los Angeles Chargers and Dallas Cowboys have been harbingers of what's to come in 2025, then NFL fans may be in for a wild ride this season. Kicking off the season, the Cowboys took the Eagles down to the wire before the reigning, defending champs took the 24-20 win. In Brazil, the Chargers exorcised AFC West demons, taking down the Chiefs in a back-and-forth affair that came down to the 2-minute warning. Sunday's NFL slate should provide plenty more fuel for the early NFL fire with plenty intriguing storylines up and down the slate. Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers kick off the early b when they head to MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Jets. It's something of a mini-revenge game for the veteran quarterback in new threads.

In the afternoon window, the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers duel in an NFC North matchup that may prove pivotal to the division crown later this season. Capping off Sunday in Week 1 is an AFC playoff rematch between the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens, who remain Super Bowl contenders as the season begins. All that makes for a powderkeg of a Week 1 in the league. Don't miss any of it – USA TODAY Sports will provide news, highlights, updates and more from all things NFL Week 1 below. All times are Eastern. The first Sunday of the season is finally here and the early window action is wrapping up.

So far today, QB Daniel Jones looks revitalized for the Indianapolis Colts in a 33-8 thrashing of the Miami Dolphins. Also, the Bengals survive the Browns in a 17-16 win. Aaron Rodgers' Steelers bested Justin Fields' Jets in a 34-32 thriller. In the late window, all eyes were on Micah Parsons’ debut for the Green Bay Packers against the Detroit Lions. But Jordan Love stole the show as the Packers rolled to a 27-13 win. What I’m hearing on Micah Parsons’ suitors, Jaxson Dart’s future and Bill Belichick’s feuds

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Two years ago, Aaron Rodgers burst through a tunnel at MetLife Stadium for his Jets debut, carrying a massive American flag and even larger expectations. He wasn’t just the Jets’ new starting quarterback, he was a savior who would lift a floundering franchise to Super Bowl contender status. The Indianapolis Colts win for the first time in NFL Week 1 since 2013, routing the Miami Dolphins 33-8. Daniel Jones passes for 272 yards and a touchdown to Michael Pittman Jr., while also rushing for 2 scores. Jonathan Taylor rushes for 71 yards (and the Colts 156).

Pittman has 6 catches for 80 yards, and rookie tight end Tyler Warren has 7 for 76 yards. Indianapolis also holds Miami to 212 total yards. Tua Tagovailoa is 14-of-23 passing for 114 yards with a 4th-quarter touchdown. He throws 2 interceptions, and is sacked 3 times, losing a fumble. The Colts host the Denver Broncos in Week 2. Colts 33, Dolphins 8, 2:33 left 4Q: Spencer Shrader connects on a 48-yard field goal.

Here are the injuries and news we're monitoring around the league on this Week 1 Sunday: [Week 1 schedule | NFL Week 1 live blog] The late afternoon slate of games for Week 1 had plenty of intriguing matchups, highlighted by a divisional showdown in Green Bay when the Detroit Lions face the Packers. After sweeping the series last year, Green Bay exacted its revenge in its home opener, featuring who else but new Packer, star edge rusher Micah Parsons, defeating the Lions 27-13. Green Bay got a new lease on life last week when they pulled off the trade to acquire Parsons for a couple of (likely late) first-round picks and Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark. Parsons is dealing with a back injury and played just 29 defensive snaps, but he was effective in his debut with the Packers, posting a sack against Lions QB Jared Goff and three quarterback...

The Lions struggled to put points on the board in their first game without Ben Johnson calling plays, with Jared Goff averaging just 5.8 yards per completion (relative to his career average of 7.5),... Just under 1,100 miles southwest, the Denver Broncos hosted the Tennessee Titans in a battle of 2025 No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward and 2024 first-round QB Bo Nix. Though Ward had a relatively slow start with just 112 passing yards on 28 attempts (0 TD, 0 INT), it was Nix who looked like the rookie in this contest, posting the second three-turnover... Week 1 of the 2025 NFL season is in full swing Sunday with 13 games, and FOX Sports will have you covered around the league. In the early window, Aaron Rodgers showed out in his Steelers debut to help them get a last-minute victory over his former team.

The Buccaneers also won in dramatic fashion, while a few other teams had more decisive wins. In the late afternoon window, the Packers dominated the Lions in Micah Parsons' debut. In another NFC divisional matchup, the 49ers picked up a dramatic win over the Seahawks on the road. Closing things out, the Ravens and Bills meet in Buffalo in a matchup between the last two MVP winners – Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. Henry McKenna and Ralph Vacchiano will take you through the early slate of games. Welcome back, football season!

We missed you! The first NFL Sunday has been chalk full of entertainment. Caleb Williams got his first NFL win with the Chicago Bears in a defense and special teams show. The Patriots upset the Bengals and the Cowboys steamrolled Deshaun Watson and the Cleveland Browns. All that’s left is a “Sunday Night Football” tilt which features Matt Stafford’s return to Detroit. Not to be overlooked was Tom Brady’s return to football today — in the Fox broadcasting booth.

The surefire Hall-of-Fame QB had a few awkward moments in his debut as a play caller, but overall got the job done. Week 1 went off with a bang after the Chiefs defeated the Ravens on Thursday night and Saquon Barkley and the Eagles beat the Packers in the NFL’s debut Brazil game.
