Whether you are planning to sit out for the weekend when your favorite team has time off or hitting the golf course for a round of 18, bye weeks in the NFL will give fans and players time away from the game.

2024 bye-week observations

Two weekends with no teams on a bye is interesting, but the NFL opted to overkill the following weeks with six teams following those non-bye weeks. The NFL also has only two teams on bye weeks twice, yet still opt to start the bye week schedules in Week 5.
