What channel is Eagles vs. Washington on today? Schedule, time for 'Sunday Night Football' in Week 17

Week 17's "Sunday Night Football" is the final game of the 2020 regular season, and there's a lot on the line.

The Washington Football Team (6-9) travels to play the Eagles (4-10-1) with the fate of the NFC East hanging in the balance. The Cowboys and Giants will play at 1 p.m. ET in Week 17, and the winner of that game will make the playoffs as the division winner if Philadelphia wins Sunday night. But a Washington win pushes the WFT into the postseason.
