NFL plans selective scheduling for Wednesday games

The NFL has started scheduling some games on Wednesdays but will do so selectively. NFL executive V.P. Hans Schroeder stated that Wednesday games are not likely to become routine, emphasizing that the league will evaluate opportunities for creative scheduling like those previously seen on Thanksgiving Eve and Christmas. This approach may include designating teams coming off a bye or previously scheduled Thursday games. As demand for prime-time games grows, the NFL aims to leverage these opportunities to increase viewership and revenue.
