Which NFL team will travel furthest in 2022?

With the 2022 NFL schedule set to be released on May 12 at 8 PM ET, it feels only fitting to look at how far each team will travel. The distance will show the linear miles each franchise will cover in the 2022 season.

The team that will travel the furthest in 2022 is the Seattle Seahawks. After trading their star quarterback Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos in the off-season, Seattle will travel 29,446 miles on their eight road trips, including their trip to Munich to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the International Series.

The distance around the earth at the equator is 24,901 miles. Along with Seattle, the New Orleans Saints, Jacksonville Jaguars, Denver Broncos, and Miami Dolphins will travel a distance greater than the earth's equatorial circumference this upcoming season. The Saints, Jaguars, and Broncos will play in London later this year. The Dolphins, who are set to traverse 25,178 miles in total, will do so without leaving the United States.

With new quarterback Kenny Pickett set to lead the team, the Pittsburgh Steelers will travel the fewest miles of any NFL team in 2022: just 6,442 miles. It is just over 20 percent of the distance that the Seahawks will travel.

The most extended road trip will be when the Buccaneers face the Seahawks in Germany—the first-ever regular-season game to be held in the country. As Seattle are the designated road team, they will face a 10,566-mile round trip. The Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams will take the honors of the trip with the fewest miles to travel as both teams play their home games at SoFi Stadium, even though the Chargers will technically be on the road for the matchup.

Some teams may change their travel preferences when the full schedule is released on Thursday, May 12, 8 PM ET, so the mileage totals could vary.

The Rams, who will travel 17,204 miles this NFL season, will be looking to retain their Super Bowl title, which will be held this year at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. It was last held here in 2008 when the New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots 17-14, which included the famous 'Helmet Catch.'
