Christmas Day is usually devoid of sporting action, but for those who don't fancy a dash of Doctor Who or a feel-good family film, we have just the suggestion for you.

The NFL does not take a break on the big day. Four teams will suit up, skip the turkey and brave the elements to serve up their own feast of football – and all the action will be shown live on Netflix.

The reigning Super Bowl champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, travel to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in a blockbuster encounter worthy of the billing. Patrick Mahomes and his men have been far from perfect in 2024, but they've continued to pile up the victories and remain one of the biggest threats in the league.

Elsewhere, AFC South leaders Houston Texans face Lamar Jackson's Baltimore Ravens in another enticing duel, a year on from the road-running QB's game-winning display last Christmas.

So once the obscure relatives scuttle home for another year, grab a plate – or two – of leftovers and nestle in for two big games.

RadioTimes.com brings you the complete NFL TV schedule for Christmas Day.
