The NFL has reworked its pre-Christmas prime time doubleheader.

The league and Fox Sports announced Tuesday that they would be flexing the Dec. 20 division matchup between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers to the primetime slot. The game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders will be pushed back to the 5 p.m. slot. The change comes among a change in circumstances for all four teams as the playoffs approach.
