Ron Torbert will be the referee for Game 256 — the Sunday night game between the Washington Football Team and the Philadelphia Eagles, which will determine if Washington will win the NFC East, or if the crown will be awarded to the winner of the Cowboys-Giants game. Clay Martin is off this week. This post will be updated as the remainder of the Week 16 games are played.

All games are on Sunday and are listed below based on their impact on the playoff picture. Potential (or clinched) playoff seeds are shown in superscripted numbers, with zeroes indicating teams that have not clinched a playoff spot. Times listed are Eastern.

Scheduled assignments are subject to change due to the pandemic.

Update: The potential seedings and their impact on the playoff picture have been updated to reflect the Packers’ win over the Titans on Sunday night and the Bills’ win over the Patriots on Monday night.
