NFL Embraces Christmas: Twice the Games, Twice the Joy

In a move that defies tradition but embraces the insatiable appetite of football fans, the National Football League (NFL) has announced plans to stage not one, but two Christmas Day games in 2024. This bold decision comes despite the holiday falling on a Wednesday, a day typically reserved for practice and preparation rather than gridiron combat. The announcement, made by Hans Schroeder, the league’s executive vice president for media distribution, signals a shift in the NFL’s approach to the ever-evolving viewing habits of its audience.
