Over the past few seasons, the National Football League has played multiple games on Christmas Day. That’s worked out okay over the past couple of years because Christmas Day in 2022 fell on a Sunday while this past year it fell on a Monday. This year, Christmas Day is on a Wednesday. . .but that’s not stopping the NFL.
The league has announced that they will, in fact, be playing a Christmas Day doubleheader this year on Wednesday, 25 December.
This shouldn’t be as surprising as it is, given that the NFL knows that they can basically do what they want as far as scheduling games goes.
