NFL Playoff Schedule: Eagles-Packers start time announced

Earlier today, we learned the Philadelphia Eagles are hosting the Green Bay Packers in the first round of the 2025 NFL playoffs.

Now we know the game’s start time: the action will officially kick off at 4:30 PM Eastern on Sunday, January 12. And it’ll be televised on FOX.

I’m a little surprised the Eagles aren’t in the Sunday night slot but, hey, I’m not complaining about an earlier than expected start.

The Eagles opened as 3.5-point home favorites against the Packers, according to FanDuel. That line has not changed early on.

Here’s the entire “Super Wild Card Weekend” schedule (all times Eastern).
