    The Walt Disney Company has to be thrilled with its lineup, which kicks off the season with Aaron Rodgers looking to stay healthy beyond the first four snaps of the season when the New York Jets take on the San Francisco 49ers in Santa Clara, Calif., and features 14 teams that made the playoffs last season.

    This season, Disney will have five doubleheaders, beginning in Week 3 when Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars take on the Buffalo Bills on ESPN, and the Washington Commanders travel to Cincinnati to take on the Bengals on ABC, followed by a Week 4 double-dip of the Tennessee Titans and Miami Dolphins on ESPN and the Seattle Seahawks traveling to take on the Detroit Lions on ABC. Then, in Week 7, the AFC North champion Baltimore Ravens take on the NFC South champion Buccaneers in Tampa Bay on ESPN as the Los Angeles Chargers take on the Arizona Cardinals on ABC.

    Fast Forward to Week 16, and Caleb Williams makes his Monday Night Football debut as the Chicago Bears take on the Minnesota Vikings on ABC and the Atlanta Falcons take on the Las Vegas Raiders on ESPN.

    ESPN also lands the highly anticipated NFC Championship Game rematch between the Lions and 49ers in Week 17.

    Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes and the two-time defending Super Bowl Kansas City Chiefs appear on Monday Night football twice, beginning in Week 5 hosting the New Orleans Saints and again in Week 9 hosting the Buccaneers.
