Roger Goodell Proposes Extending NFL Season to 18 Games, Aligning Super Bowl with Presidents' Day

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell suggests replacing a preseason game with an additional regular season game, potentially creating a three-day Super Bowl weekend.

Goodell floated the idea of an 18-game regular season during an appearance on 'The Pat McAfee Show'.
The proposed change would align the Super Bowl with Presidents' Day, offering fans a day off following the game.
Goodell's plan includes reducing preseason games from three to two, emphasizing quality over quantity.
The adjustment would require approval from the NFL Players Association, amid concerns about player safety and season length.
Goodell also discussed expanding the NFL's international presence, envisioning more games abroad.
