Sports and non-sports fans alike will have quite a bit of entertainment to watch on Thanksgiving before and after chowing down on turkey, pie and more.
The annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City begins the festivities on Thursday, Nov. 27, in the morning, with NFL games kicking off later in the day. As always, the Detroit Lions (7-4) and Dallas Cowboys (5-5-1) will play on Thanksgiving.
The Lions have hosted games on the holiday for more than 90 years, while the Cowboys have hosted Thanksgiving games since 1966.
The NFL penciled in the Green Bay Packers (6-3-1) and Kansas City Chiefs (5-5) to face the Lions and Cowboys, respectively. The league also scheduled the Cincinnati Bengals (3-7) vs. the Baltimore Ravens (5-5) as the main event for its Thanksgiving slate of games.
Here’s what to know about the NFL’s three Thanksgiving games and where to watch them all.
