One of the biggest questions about the NFL schedule is which games will be on our television when we’re sitting down for a Thanksgiving Day feast? We now know.

The NFL released its full 17-week schedule on Thursday, which obviously included the three games that will be played on Thanksgiving Day, which is Thursday, Nov. 26 this year. Yes, the Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys will continue their tradition of playing on the holiday.

Thanksgiving games begin at 12:30 p.m. ET with Detroit hosting the Houston Texans. That game will air on CBS. Four hours later, the Cowboys will take on the Washington Redskins at AT&T Stadium with kickoff scheduled for 4:30 p.m. ET on FOX.

Closing out the day will be an AFC rivalry matchup, with the Pittsburgh Steelers welcoming the Baltimore Ravens to town. Kickoff for that contest is set for 8:20 ET with the game airing on NBC.
