The regular season has come to an end and the 2020-2021 NFL playoffs are still a few days away, the question now becomes is there a Tuesday Night Football game tonight? This past season was unique in many regards, but one of the newest additions to the NFL schedule was Tuesday Night Football. Is that the case tonight?
Is there a Tuesday Night Football game tonight?
Week 17 was a bit different compared to other weeks of the season, with all 32 teams playing on Sunday. That means that we did not have a Monday Night Football game or a Thursday Night Football Game. Additionally, there will not be a Tuesday Night Football game tonight.

The last Tuesday Night Football game of the regular season was played Tuesday, December 8th, 2020, between the Dallas Cowboys and the Baltimore Ravens. The game was originally scheduled to be played the Thursday prior but was moved to later in the week due to positive tests. When the game was finally able to be played, the Ravens came out on top.
The rushing attack of the Ravens proved to be too much for Dallas. Gus Edwards put up an impressive performance with 101 rushing yards. Behind him, quarterback Lamar Jackson rushed for 94 yards and a TD. While standout rookie JK Dobbins put up 71 yards and a TD.
The only other Tuesday Night Football game played during the 2020 regular season was back in October. During that game, the Buffalo Bills were embarrassed by the Tennessee Titans.
