With the NFL finally setting the date for when it will release the full 2023 NFL schedule (it’s Thursday), the next logical thing to expect is ... leaks.

In the days leading up to the big announcement, reporters and others will learn of the dates of certain games this season. That information will be shared, often on social media.

We may have already gotten one of those leaks — from an unlikely source.

Donna Kelce, the mother of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and Eagles center Jason Kelce, shared a Facebook message about the schedule. She shared information about the Chiefs’ game in Germany and said they’d be playing the Bears.

“This was previously reported in early April,” Kelce wrote, “so it feels like a lock at this point.”

Kelce then added a comment to her post: “Chiefs plays Eagles week 2 in Arrowhead.”

That fact hasn’t previously been reported, so we’ll have to see if that proves to be the case. Here is the post.
