NFL exploring Thanksgiving Eve game

The NFL is considering adding a game on Thanksgiving Eve as early as this season [https://x.com/i/status/2031723459789607011].

The NFL has been considering ways to expand its Thanksgiving Day lineup, and a Wednesday game would be a novel approach to capture more viewership. This could potentially lead to increased revenue for the league and its broadcast partners. Adding a game on Thanksgiving Eve could face pushback from players due to the shortened week and potential impact on player safety. The NFL Players Association would likely need to be involved in discussions about any changes to the schedule. Broadcasters would likely be interested in the additional primetime slot during a major holiday week. Amazon, which already broadcasts Thursday Night Football, could be a potential candidate to air a Wednesday game.
