The NFL has made a decision about the Week 13 Monday night game. The Arizona Cardinals will not see their Week 13 road game against the Minnesota Vikings moved to prime time.
The originally scheduled Monday night game, set to air on ABC and ESPN, was the 2-8 Cleveland Browns on the road against the 6-5 Denver Broncos, will not be flexed out in favor of another matchup.
The game between the 6-4 Cardinals, who lead the NFC West and the 8-2 Vikings, both teams in the thick of the NFC playoff race, which was one many believed could get flexed into the Monday night time slot, will remain on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
If the NFL was going to make a change in the Monday night game, they had to do so by Tuesday night.
So for Cardinals fans who already had travel plans to be in Minnesota for that game, those plans do not have to change.
The Cardinals and Vikings will play on Sunday, not on Monday.
