The NFL has announced that they will no longer be releasing schedules on Tuesday as originally planned.

"“It will not be tomorrow but could be in the next week or two. We’re working to finalize it.” – NFL spokesman Greg Aiello (PFT)"

The league was going to air a draft show on the NFL Network at 8:00 EST tomorrow, but the hold up comes from the fact that the defending Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens will be opening on the road this year. The league must figure out how to configure 256 regular season games, including three prime-time games per week and 17 Thursday games all while different networks politic for certain games.

The hype will continue as we wait with pens out in front of our calendars.
