We are expecting to get the officiating assignments piecemeal, rather than the full list. As we confirm, we will post here with the full spotters chart. In some cases, where the entire crew is not known to us, we have listed the crew that the head referee officiated with last week (generally, these are the crews that do not have an alternate official listed).
All times are Eastern. Positions are listed in order: referee, umpire, head linesman, line judge, field judge, side judge, and back judge. The illustration shows the relative positions of the officials on the field. The first-down chains are at the top sideline, the single yard-to-gain and the drive-start stakes at the bottom sideline. The chain crew switches sidelines at halftime, as do the four sideline officials.
