NFL football arrives a week early for Redskins and Baltimore Ravens fans: the Redskins will travel to Baltimore on Saturday, Aug. 6, to scrimmage the Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium, the teams have announced.

The scrimmage is set to begin at 12 noon ET. Tickets are available through the Baltimore Ravens ticket office.

This is the first Redskins' preseason scrimmage since the 2000 season, when the team hosted the Ravens at FedExField. That contest ended shortly after it started due to thunderstorm and lightning conditions.

In years past, the Redskins scrimmaged the Pittsburgh Steelers on a regular basis.

Redskins Training Camp Built by The Home Depot begins in late July, with players reporting on Sunday, July 31. The first practice is set for Monday, Aug. 1. The Redskins will announce the rest of the training camp schedule in the coming weeks.

A week after the Redskins-Ravens scrimmage, the Redskins will travel to Charlotte, N.C., to officially open the preseason schedule against the Carolina Panthers. The game, to be held at Bank of America Stadium, is slated to begin at 8 p.m. ET.

On Friday, Aug. 19, the preseason opener at FedExField features the Redskins playing the Cincinnati Bengals. Game time is 8 p.m. ET.

The Pittsburgh Steelers come to FedExField on Friday, Aug. 26 for the third preseason game. This game, slated for 8 p.m. ET, will be nationally televised by FOX.

The Redskins and Ravens close out the preseason on Thursday, Sept. 1 with an 8 p.m. ET game at M&T Bank Stadium.
