The Browns are getting some well-deserved respect from the NFL broadcast partners. Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Cleveland’s Week 15 matchup with the New York Giants has been moved to a primetime game.
Originally set as a 1 p.m. ET kickoff, the NFL flexed the Browns-Giants game to the Sunday Night Football slot on NBC. The regularly scheduled matchup for SNF, Dallas versus San Francisco, takes over the 1 p.m. slot.
Cleveland is 9-3 and could conceivably clinch a playoff berth in the Giants matchup. New York has won four in a row to surge to first place in the NFC East, albeit with a 5-7 record.
It will be the second national audience in a row for the Browns, who play the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football in Week 14.
