For those of you who have already made plans to travel to Minnesota on Sunday night next week to watch the Green Bay Packers, here’s some good news: The league is not going to flex the Packers vs. Vikings matchup. According to Miami Herald reporter Barry Jackson, the NFL will actually not be making any changes to the Week 17 schedule.
The two biggest threats that could have pushed Packers vs. Vikings off of Sunday Night Football, as Jackson noted, were matchups between the Miami Dolphins and Baltimore Ravens and the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals.
