The Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers will close out the 2022 NFL regular season, as the NFL announced on Monday that they’ve been flexed to the “Sunday Night Football” game.
The Lions are one of the hottest teams in the NFL, having won seven of their last nine games. But they lost their opportunity to be in the driver’s seat for the final Wild Card spot when they lost to the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. The Packers capitalized on that opportunity by winning four in a row, and now Green Bay is in control of their own destiny.
