NFL Week 16 2023 Highlights: Live Tracking the Top Plays from Sunday's Results

Tyler ConwayDec 24, 2023

Week 16 already got off to a hot start with some holiday treats Thursday and Saturday, but the bulk of the slate still resided on its natural Sunday home.

The Christmas Eve holiday featured a combination of Super Bowl-worthy gifts (Cowboys-Dolphins), along with some unfortunate lumps of coal (Commanders-Jets) while three games await on Monday's slate.

The spacing of scheduling a full weekend of games allowed fans to hyperfocus over 10 or so hours, and we got plenty of noteworthy highlights along the way. With semifinals matchups also ongoing in the fantasy football playoffs, touchdowns and big plays carry more weight than ever.

Here's a look at some of the biggest plays from Week 16.
