2022 Schedule: Who Will Washington Play, and Where?

We don't know the team name, but we know all of Washington's 2022 opponents.

There are some certainties with the Washington Football Team these days.

For one, it won't be the 'Washington Football Team' much longer. And after the team's season-ending victory over the New York Giants last Sunday, we now know the opponents that team under another name will face.

Obviously, there will be the usual NFC East home and away dates with the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles, and New York Giants.

Additionally, Washington will also square off against the NFC North with home games against the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers, and away dates with the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears. Washington also draws the AFC South, getting home contests against the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans, while traveling to face the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts.

The WFT will get a taste of the third-place finishers from the NFC South, NFC West and AFC North.

Since the San Francisco 49ers have already locked up third place in the NFC West, we know Washington will travel to the west coast for a game there at some point in 2022.

From the NFC South, the Atlanta Falcons will be taking a trip up to FedEx Field. Washington defeated the Dirty Birds in Week 4 at Atlanta, 34-30, last season.

And finally, the AFC North opponent will be the Cleveland Browns. Despite defeating the Cincinnati Bengals in its season-finale, 21-16, the team finished third in the division. The Browns last played at Washington in 2016, where they lost, 31-20.

WFT's 2022 opponents:

HOME: Cowboys. Giants. Eagles. Vikings. Packers. Jaguars. Titans. 49ers. Falcons.

AWAY: Cowboys. Giants. Eagles. Lions. Bears. Texans. Colts. Browns.
