The NFL pulled an okey-doke on everybody.
The NFL is set to play on Christmas Day for the 2024 season, despite the holiday falling in the middle of the week. Hans Schroeder, the NFL’s executive vice president of media distribution, said the league changed its stance after last season’s three Christmas games (Ravens-49ers, Chiefs-Raiders, and Giants-Eagles) drew in a large audience.
That wasn’t the only big news of the day. That entire Christmas week is slated to have games on all but one day and that includes the NCAA.

December 26: NFL game
December 28: NFL games
December 29: NFL games

ESPN’s Mina Kimes had the best reaction to this news as she took to X and posted a video of herself sending a message to he friends and family letting them know she would be sick in advance of that week.
It remains unclear which NFL teams will be playing during Christmas.
