Not only is the Wisconsin-based team playing its third-straight Turkey Day game in a row, but they're tied with the Chicago Bears for the third-most played in NFL history.
But the Packers' 39 Thanksgiving games (with a 16-20-2 record) pale in comparison to the Lions' 85 Thanksgiving games (38-45-2), per NBC 5. This matchup also marks the 23rd time that the teams have played each other on the holiday.
In addition to watching fan-favorite players like Jordan Love, Josh Jacobs, Jared Goff and Amon-Ra St. Brown battle it out on the field, viewers can also look forward to a heart-pumping halftime performance from Jack White. CeCe Winans will kick off the game by singing the national anthem.
