The times, dates and TV channels for the 2024 NFL Divisional Round of the playoffs have been set for the Detroit Lions.

Shortly after the Detroit Lions defeated the Los Angeles Rams in the Wild Card round, the NFL announced the dates and times of Divisional Round games next week.

The Lions will play in Detroit on Sunday, January 21 at 3 p.m. ET on NBC.

We don’t know who the Lions will play yet, but thanks to the Dallas Cowboys losing to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, they now hold the second-highest seed in the NFC. That means the Packers will face the 49ers next week, and the Lions will wait to face the winner of the Philadelphia Eagles vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers game on Monday night.

This is the first time the Lions will play in the divisional round since 1991, and it’s the first time IN TEAM HISTORY they will host two playoff games in one offseason.

Here is the full schedule of the NFL Divisional round:

Saturday Jan. 20

4:30 p.m. ET — Texans at Ravens or Chiefs (ESPN/ABC)
8 p.m. ET — Packers at 49ers (FOX)

Sunday, Jan. 21

3 p.m. ET — Eagles/Bucs at Lions (NBC)
6:30 p.m. ET — Chiefs at Bills or Steelers at Ravens (CBS)
