who plays nfl football on christmas

The National Football League (NFL) typically does not play games on Christmas Day. However, there have been instances where Christmas Day games have been played in the past. In 2011, the NFL scheduled a game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Giants to be played on Christmas Day. The game ended up being rescheduled due to a snowstorm in Philadelphia, but it still remains the only Christmas Day game in NFL history. Since then, the league has avoided scheduling games on Christmas Day, preferring to give players and fans a break during the holiday season.
