SNF ON THANKSGIVING NIGHT: BENGALS AT RAVENS AT 8 P.M. ET ON NBC, PEACOCK, TELEMUNDO AND UNIVERSO

The Ravens aim to win their sixth consecutive game this Thursday night, as they have moved into first place in the AFC North, while quarterback Joe Burrow returns to start for the Bengals for the first time since a toe injury sidelined him after Week 2. Burrow will look to connect with wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, who leads the AFC in catches (79) and receiving yards (861).

Ravens running back Derrick Henry, in his second season with the team, has a rushing touchdown in 84 career games, including playoffs, surpassing Pro Football Hall of Famer John Riggins (83 games) for the fourth-most games with a rushing touchdown, including postseason, in NFL history. Only Pro Football Hall of Famers Emmitt Smith (130 games), Marcus Allen (100) and LaDainian Tomlinson (96), as well as Adrian Peterson (89) have more.

Thursday’s matchup will be the 60th overall meeting between the teams, including playoffs, with Baltimore holding a 32-27 advantage. Baltimore (6-5) has won the last four regular season division contests in 2023 and 2024 while Cincinnati (3-8) won the teams’ matchup in the 2022 AFC Wild Card game. The Bengals and Ravens have combined to win the past four AFC North titles.

Mike Tirico will call Bengals-Ravens on Thanksgiving night alongside former Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett (analyst). Melissa Stark will report from the sidelines and handle NBC Sports’ traditional Thanksgiving on-field postgame honors, with a Madden-favorite turducken dish for the winning team’s players. Three-time Super Bowl referee Terry McAulay will serve as the SNF rules analyst.

At halftime, NBC Sports will present a special feature on John Madden’s impact as a coach, narrated by Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid.

NBC Sports and Peacock will collaborate for a second consecutive year with the National Football League, EA SPORTS, and Genius Sports to present the EA SPORTS Madden NFL Cast exclusively on Peacock. Blending video game elements and live action, this season’s edition brings a new angle that will predominantly come from the hi-sky camera located behind the quarterback.

SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL: BRONCOS AT COMMANDERS AT 8:20 P.M. ET ON NBC, PEACOCK AND UNIVERSO; FOOTBALL NIGHT IN AMERICA KICKS OFF COVERAGE AT 7 P.M. ET

Denver (9-2) and Washington (3-8) both enter Week 13 coming off a bye. The Broncos defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, 22-19, in Week 11 on kicker Will Lutz’s last-second field goal, extending their win streak to eight games. Denver leads the NFL with 49 sacks, the most by a team in the first 11 weeks of a season since 1989 (Minnesota, 53).

The Commanders fell to the Miami Dolphins, 16-13, in overtime in Madrid. Washington linebacker Bobby Wagner had eight tackles against Miami and has 107 tackles this season. Wagner is the second player since 2000 with at least 100 tackles in 14 consecutive seasons, joining London Fletcher.

The Broncos and Commanders meet for the 17th time on Sunday, with the series tied 8-8 (including postseason). Washington defeated Denver, 42-10, in Super Bowl XXII on Jan. 31, 1988.

This season, “flexible scheduling” for NBC’s Sunday Night Football may be used up to twice between Weeks 5-10, and in the NFL’s discretion during Weeks 11-17. During these flex scheduling windows, the games initially scheduled for NBC Sunday Night Football are tentatively scheduled and subject to change. Only Sunday afternoon games (or those listed as TBD) are eligible to be moved to Sunday night, in which case the initially scheduled Sunday night game would be moved to Sunday afternoon. As in prior seasons, for Week 18, the final weekend of the season, the scheduling of the Saturday, Sunday afternoon, and the Sunday night games is not assigned. Specific dates, start times, and networks for Week 18 matchups will be determined and announced following the conclusion of Week 17.
