"NFL Plans Christmas Day Doubleheader for 2024 Season"
The NFL will continue its tradition of playing games on Christmas Day in 2024, with two matchups scheduled despite the holiday falling on a Wednesday. The league has seen significant television ratings for these games, and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell stated that Wednesday games will not become a regular occurrence, with no notable increase in injuries from mid-week games. This tradition dates back to 1971, and the matchups for the 2024 games have yet to be determined.
