Building on last season’s holiday success, the NFL is planning a Christmas Day tripleheader in 2025.
Two games will air on Netflix on Dec. 25 followed by a Thursday nightcap on Amazon Prime, the league confirmed Tuesday at the owners meetings in Florida.
The NFL broadcast two games on Netflix last Christmas, which fell on a Wednesday. The Baltimore Ravens beat the Texans 31-2 in Houston, with Beyonce providing the halftime entertainment, and the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Steelers 29-10 in Pittsburgh.
Both games averaged more than 24 million viewers, according to Nielsen data. Nielsen and Netflix said that 65 million people watched at least a minute of the streaming service’s nine-hour presentation.
The teams participating in this season’s Christmas trifecta will be revealed when the NFL schedule is released in May.
