NFL on Thanksgiving: Football Schedule & Where to Watch

The NFL will be active at Thanksgiving this year, bringing families together with comfort food and football.

The NFL will feature its first-ever Thanksgiving Eve game on Nov. 25 this year, with the Green Bay Packers taking on the Los Angeles Rams. That game will lead into a full three-game slate on Thanksgiving Day.

The Detroit Lions will be back in action on Thanksgiving Day, hosting the Chicago Bears and continuing a tradition that began in 1934. The Lions have played on Thanksgiving every season since 1944.

The Dallas Cowboys also traditionally play on Thanksgiving dating back to 1966, and will host the Philadelphia Eagles in an NFC East matchup this year.
