How to watch the Dallas Cowboys game against the Washington Commanders on Christmas Day
The Dallas Cowboys face off against division foes the Washington Commanders on Christmas Day, and fans have multiple ways to watch.
For the second time this season, the Cowboys will have a standalone game on a holiday in front of a national audience, following the Thanksgiving Day victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Thanksgiving Day game was the most-watched regular season game in NFL history. Christmas Day's game will likely not come close to the mark, as both teams have been eliminated from playoff contention. The Cowboys' loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last week officially ended their playoff hopes for a second straight season.
The Commanders have been one of the NFL's biggest disappointments, following last year's run to the NFC Championship Game on the arm of rookie QB sensation Jayden Daniels. This season, Daniels only appeared in seven games due to injuries. On Thursday, the Commanders are starting third-string QB Josh Johnson, with backup Marcus Mariota also injured.
How can you watch the Cowboys vs. Commanders on TV?
