NFL Keeps Broncos-Commanders on Week 13 Sunday Night Football

Network protections combined with the 12-day flex rule left few realistic replacements.

Overview

  • The Athletic’s Nicki Jhabvala reported the decision ahead of the Nov. 18 flex deadline, confirming Broncos-Commanders stays in the SNF slot on Nov. 30.
  • Denver enters its bye at 9-2 on an eight-game winning streak, while Washington is 3-8 on a six-game slide.
  • Jayden Daniels remains a question after a dislocated elbow, with Washington keeping him off injured reserve as Marcus Mariota starts for now.
  • CBS’s auto-protection kept Texans-Colts off limits and other late-window games received protections, narrowing the pool of movable matchups.
  • Vikings-Seahawks remains a 4:05 p.m. ET FOX game on Nov. 30, as logistical limits and a crowded holiday TV slate reduced flex flexibility.
