The Roscommon senior footballers' opponents for the opening round of this year's All-Ireland SFC have been confirmed.

The draw on Monday afternoon pitted Mark Dowd's men against Tyrone.

The game will be played in King and Moffatt Dr. Hyde Park on the weekend of May 23rd and 24th.

The Rossies famously defeated the Red Hand County for the first time in the championship in Healy Park two years ago, thanks to a 0-14 to 0-12 victory.

Mayo were drawn away to Monaghan, while Galway will host Kildare. The tie of the round is a repeat of the 2025 All-Ireland SFC final, which will see Donegal travel to Killarney to play Kerry.

The winners and losers of these games will be grouped into Round 2A (winners) and Round 2B (losers) for the next round of games on June 13th/14th.
