NFL Does Not Flex in Week 16

The non-flexing this season continues in the NFL. Only one flex game and that was in Week 13. For Week 16, the Sunday Night Football game between Dallas and Washington will remain in place. There is one move from an early afternoon game to late afternoon and I’ll allow the NFL press release to explain.

WEEK 16 FLEX SCHEDULING:

NO CHANGE IN NBC SUNDAY NIGHT GAME;
DENVER AT PHILADELPHIA MOVES TO 4:15 PM ET ON CBS ON DEC. 27


The Week 16 NFL schedule was finalized today with the originally scheduled Dallas at Washington Sunday night game on NBC remaining in place. The Denver at Philadelphia game on Sunday, December 27 moves from 1:00 PM ET to 4:15 PM ET on CBS.

REMINDER: The flex schedule game time change for this Sunday (Dec. 20) is Green Bay at Pittsburgh on FOX at 4:15 PM ET.

We will have a flex in Week 17 as there is no game in the primetime slot. Usually, the NFL tries to put a game with playoff implications there in the last week of the regular season.
