WEEK 12 FLEX SCHEDULING

The final Week 12 NFL schedule was announced today with the originally scheduled Green Bay Packers at New York Giants game remaining in place on NBC’s Sunday Night Football.

The announcement was made a week early to allow fans and teams to finalize travel plans for Thanksgiving weekend.

Following is the final Week 12 NFL schedule:

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 22 (WEEK 12)

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 26

The NFL will utilize “flexible scheduling” on Sundays in Weeks 11-17.  Flexible scheduling will ensure quality matchups in all NFL Sunday time slots in those weeks and give teams a chance to play their way onto primetime and into the late-afternoon 4:25 PM ET time slot on CBS and FOX. 

For each of the flexible scheduling weeks with the exception of Week 17, the NFL will announce the start times of games on Sundays no later than 12 days prior to that weekend.  To ensure a Sunday night game and doubleheader games with playoff implications in Week 17, the flexible scheduling decision for that Sunday may be made on six days notice.
