The NFL released the 2013 Preseason schedule today. While the preseason is fairly meaningless, the excitement about round the schedule release is just one step closer to the season. It also is a change for many fans to see their teams take form. Usually the preseason games are more affordable for fans who might not be able to attend the more pricy games of the regular season.

The NFL will announce the 2013 regular season on April 16th, a little over a week ahead of the NFL Draft, set to start Thursday, April 25th.
