The full schedule was released one day after the team announced they will host the Dallas Cowboys and former Packers head coach Mike McCarthy at Lambeau Field on November 13.

Last week, the NFL announced the Packers and New York Giants will face off in London on October 9. That game will be the first time Green Bay plays a regular-season game abroad.
