The 2024 NFL season is well underway and the first four weeks of games are in the books. As the calendar flips to October and the weather grows ever-so-slightly chillier, the first bye weeks will appear on the schedule.
For newer fans, a "bye week" is a week off all NFL teams get at some point in the schedule. It means they will not play that week and can use their time off to rest, recover and reset. Bye weeks are spread out between Week 5 and Week 15. So from now until December, each week of games will be missing a few teams.
