The Packers have made an unusual scheduling request for the 2020 season.

According to ESPN'S Rob Demovsky on twitter, Packers president Mark Murphy said during the NFL combine the team has requested to be away from Lambeau Field for the last weekend in September and the first weekend in October to avoid conflicts with other nearby sporting events.

The first request is for the Packers to go on the road during the Ryder Cup, which is scheduled for Sept. 25-27 at the Whistling Straits Golf Course near Sheboygan.

The other would accommodate Notre Dame hosting Wisconsin at Lambeau Field on Oct. 3 in a special-venue matchup that will also feature a game played at Soldier Field during the 2021 season.

If both requests were granted, the Packers would spend both Week 3 and Week 4 on the road during the 2020 season.
