Packers-Lions flexed to Sunday night Week 17 finale

The battle for the NFC North will cap the 2016 NFL regular season.

The league announced Sunday that the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions' game has been selected as the Week 17 finale, setting it for an 8:30 ET kickoff next Sunday on NBC.

Detroit (9-5) can seal a playoff berth with a win over the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night, but the division winner will come down to the final game against Green Bay (9-6). The Packers currently stand as the second wild card but have yet to clinch.

The New Orleans Saints-Atlanta Falcons and New York Giants-Washington Redskins games were also moved to 4:25 p.m.
