The Detroit Lions visit the Minnesota Vikings on Christmas Day, here's how to watch.
Christmas Day is a time for family and fellowship and, of course, football. This Christmas Day, Netflix will broadcast an NFL doubleheader, featuring an early game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Washington Commanders at 1 p.m. ET, followed by a late afternoon matchup between the Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings, kicking off at 4:30 p.m. ET. (A third game, technically the week's Thursday Night Football matchup, will stream on Prime Video that night and features the Denver Broncos at the Kansas City Chiefs.)
The Lions vs. Vikings game is not just an important game for the two NFC North rivals, it's also going to offer up a seriously fun performance with Snoop's Holiday Halftime Party, a halftime performance led by Snoop Dogg, with appearances from Lainey Wilson and K-Pop Demon Hunters singing sensations Huntr/x (a.k.a EJAE, Rei Ami and Audrey Nuna).
