NFL teams will take the field on Christmas day decked out in uniforms with a holiday-inspired patch as singers Mariah Carey and Beyonce bring the musical star power to the games.
“The four teams who are a part of the NFL’s Christmas Day games — Baltimore [Ravens], Houston [Texans], Kansas City [Chiefs] and Pittsburgh [Steelers] — will wear holiday-inspired uniform patches during Weeks 16 and 17, the league said in a memo,” a post on X from ESPN Senior NFL insider Adam Schefter read.
The post included a photo of the patch that will be worn, which is two crossed striped red and white candy canes and the NFL shield in the middle.

The Houston team posted a photo on social media of how the holiday patch will look on the team’s uniforms.
“Our uniforms will feature a holiday-inspired patch for Weeks 16 & 17 to celebrate our game on 12/25,” the Texans wrote.
The four teams will not only play on Christmas Day, Dec. 25 but also four days earlier on Saturday, December 21, SportsLogo.net noted.
The Chiefs take on the Texans and the Steelers play the Ravens in a head to head game on the 21. On Christmas Day, the Chiefs hit the road to play against the Steelers with a 1 PM ET start time. The Texans host the Ravens later in the afternoon that day.

And the games will be star-studded events, with the queen of Christmas, Mariah Carey, kicking things off on Christmas day. Carey will deliver a taped performance of her all-time number one hit holiday song “All I Want For Christmas Is You” during a game opening performance, TMZ reported.
“This Christmas, we all get our wish,” Carey said of the announcement. “The NFL will be live on Netflix, and I’ll be there, too.”
Beyonce will perform songs for the halftime game in Houston from her country album “Cowboy Carter, CBS Morning noted.
“A Cowboy Carter Christmas. HOUSTON, TEXAS 12.25,” a post from the superstar singer read.
