The Cowboys have played back-to-back Thursday games several times in team history, following their Thanksgiving Day game with Thursday Night Football the following week.

The Cowboys first began playing their annual Thanksgiving game in 1966. Then Cowboys president and general manager Tex Schramm proposed to the league that the Cowboys host the second Thanksgiving Day game in 1967, and the rest is history. Dallas has been a Thanksgiving staple since the 1966 season with the exception of 1975 and 1977.
