That’s worked out okay over the past couple of years because Christmas Day in 2022 fell on a Sunday while this past year it fell on a Monday. This year, Christmas Day is on a Wednesday. . .but that’s not stopping the NFL. The league has announced that they will, in fact, be playing a Christmas Day doubleheader this year on Wednesday, 25 December.

Lon Horwedel-USA TODAY Sports As they should Exactly one month from today, the Minnesota Vikings are (likely) going to define the future direction of their franchise when they use a higher draft choice on a quarterback than at any other time in franchise history. While they currently have two first-round picks, sitting at #11 and #23, the expectation is that they’re going to use those picks and whatever other ammo they need to part with to move up and select a quarterback of the future.
