Washington’s Week 17 game vs. Philadelphia Eagles flexed to Sunday Night Football

The game between the Washington Football Team and Philadelphia Eagles is going to be worth all of the marbles for Ron Rivera and his squad, and with that weight on the outcome, the game is now being flexed to Sunday Night Football in a new schedule released by the NFL.

Washington was originally supposed to play the Eagles earlier in the day, but with the weight of the game, the league has decided to make it the primetime matchup of the weekend, with it ultimately deciding who wins the NFC East. Thanks to the outcomes on Sunday, Washington can win the division with a victory over the Eagles. If they happen to lose, the winner of New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys will decide the winner of the division earlier in the day.
