Though the entire NFL regular season schedule will be released at 8 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday night, we now reportedly know one of the three Thanksgiving matchups.

According to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, the Bears will play at Green Bay on Thanksgiving night.

In the last meeting between the clubs at Lambeau Field, the Packers rolled to a 55-14 victory over listless Chicago, which would fire head coach Marc Trestman and G.M. Phil Emery at season’s end.

As is customary, the Cowboys and Lions are set to host games earlier on Thanksgiving.

With the Packers-Bears matchup set, the question now is whether Dallas and Detroit will host divisional rivals as they did a season ago. At least two of three Thanksgiving games in the last three years have pitted clubs from the same division.
