Super Bowl 2023: Roger Goodell Says "thursday Night Football" Games Can Finally Be Flexible

If you're a football fan who dreads seeing the NFL schedule in Week 6 because of all the Texans-Commanders games on "Thursday Night Football," you may be delighted. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said flex scheduling could be possible for the NFL in the future.

President Trump recently suggested that the NFL could allow teams to change Thursday night matchups several weeks in advance if the league gives them advance notice.

There are restrictions on the number of times the league can flex games into the "Sunday Night Football" slot. The current rules only allow teams playing on Sunday to turn games into space. The NFL cannot move a Saturday or Thursday play into the "Sunday Night Football" slot. A Thursday game would not be included in the schedule if it had a flexible schedule.

NFL Teams Might Obtain Criticism From Players On Thursday When Flex Time Begins

Goodell's phrasing seems to suggest he would like the flexibility to flex "Thursday Night Football" games in the future. If he tries to make that a reality, he could receive pushback from the players or NFLPA.

NFL players have protested Thursday night games in the past. It's a much shorter turnaround time for players, and that's a big deal in a game that rewards many collisions every game. Players need to recover as quickly as possible from those bumps and bruises. Playing safely is a matter of player safety.

Friday-night football games would cause a more considerable uproar than anticipated. Even teams giving advance notice about the schedule change often refuse to take rest days from players in the middle of the NFL season.
