Who Plays On Christmas Day 2021 Nfl?
It’s never too early to start thinking about Christmas Day 2021 NFL games. Who do you think will be playing?
Christmas Day 2021
In the NFL, Christmas Day is special. It’s the one day of the year when every team is in action, and every fan has their favorite squad to root for. This year, there are several great games on the schedule, including a few that could have playoff implications. So, who plays on Christmas Day 2021?
Christmas Day 2021 is on a Friday
Christmas Day 2021 falls on a Friday, giving NFL fans a slate of games to enjoy on one of the most important holidays of the year. The NFL has not yet released the full schedule for the 2021 season, but it is known that the Detroit Lions will host the Green Bay Packers on Christmas Day. This will be the first time in history that these two teams have played each other on Christmas Day.
NFL will most likely play on Christmas Day 2021
The NFL is planning to move forward with games on Christmas Day this year, despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, according to a report from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Rapoport reported that the league is “hopeful and optimistic” that it will be able to play games on December 25, though there are still some logistical challenges that need to be overcome.
One of those challenges is the fact that, unlike in years past, there will likely be no NFL games played on Christmas Eve this year. That means that any games played on Christmas Day would have to be moved to either Saturday, December 26 or Monday, December 28.
Another challenge is the fact that, due to the pandemic, some teams may not have their full complement of players available for games. That could lead to teams having to play ” phantom games” against each other, with only a few players taking part in the game.
The NFL has not yet made a final decision on whether or not games will be played on Christmas Day, but it is expected to make an announcement in the coming weeks.
Who will play?
The NFL has not announced the full schedule for Christmas Day 2021, but there are some games that have been confirmed.
