The NFL schedule release means spring showers are bringing May wagers, as DraftKings released odds for all Week 1 games.
Week 1 of the NFL season begins Thursday, Sept. 6, with an AFC Championship rematch between the Ravens and Chiefs.
Some early odds movement has hit the lines for bettors willing to tie up some wagering money for five months.
The Jets opened as 6.5-point underdogs to the 49ers, but it would appear that some money came in as the 49ers moved the line down a full point.
Below are the full opening lines in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season as of Thursday morning.

There will also be a Friday night football game set for Week 1 as the league begins its venture into dominating multiple days of each week instead of your typical Sunday.
The widest spread of the week is the Patriots vs. Bengals, with the Bengals laying 8.5 points.
The highest total is tied at 51 for two primetime clashes featuring Rams vs. Lions and Bills vs. Dolphins.
