The offseason has finally come to an end, and the first week of the NFL preseason is here. Four new white hats– Alex Kemp, Shawn Hochuli, Shawn Smith, and Clay Martin — will be taking the field with their new crews this week. Martin is the only one of the four with a national broadcast game, although all preseason games will be replayed during the week.

All times Eastern. Live games on NFL Network will be blacked out and telecast on local stations in both teams’ markets. Walt Coleman’s crew is off this week. The 2018 officiating crews are listed here, but note that there may be substitutions from the regular crew personnel each week.
