0 in sports, especially American football, a week during the playing season in which a team does not play a game --
Each of the league's 32 teams will play a 16-game schedule with one bye week for each team scheduled between weeks four and twelve.
The league, when it was planning for six teams, intended for a 10-game regular season over 11 weeks (one bye week for each team).
This meant that minor premier was given a second consecutive bye week, giving them three weeks between games.
Bye week are scheduled for rounds 4-6 and 11-12.
They were able to accomplish this feat without even stepping foot on the field, as they had their bye week this weekend.
They started the season 07, before adding 63 after their bye week.
Week 10 was originally set to be the team's bye week.
In order to account for the uneven number of teams, each team was required to have a bye week during the exhibition season.
