The NFL occasionally changes some previously announced prime-time games during the season for more interesting ones.
And they’ve done that for a game next week.
Sunday Night Football in NFL Week 9 on Nov. 3 will now feature the Indianapolis Colts against the Minnesota Vikings on NBC.
It was going to be the Jacksonville Jaguars at Philadelphia Eagles, but the league decided to change it to a more marquee matchup.
Jaguars vs. Eagles will now be in the afternoon time slot on CBS.
This is interestingly the second time the Eagles have had a time change for a game this season.

They were originally scheduled to face the Cincinnati Bengals in NFL Week 8 in the afternoon time slot, but that game was moved to the earlier window of games, with the league moving the Chicago Bears at Washington Commanders game in the coveted afternoon spot.
The Eagles are currently scheduled to host the Commanders on Thursday Night Football in NFL Week 11.
Sunday Night Football for the next few weeks:
Week 8: Dallas at San Francisco.
Week 9: Indianapolis at Minnesota.
Week 10: Detroit at Houston.
Week 11: Indianapolis at NY Jets.
The Eagles, who are scheduled to play at the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football in Week 12, could have another game this season put into a prime-time spot, with their NFL Week 13 game against the Ravens potentially a very enticing matchup.
The Jaguars are not scheduled to appear in prime time for the rest of this season.
