Netflix announced on Tuesday that legendary rock band U2 will play the halftime show during the Los Angeles Rams' game against the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Eve. That game takes place at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, bringing the iconic band to the Rams' house for a special performance.

It's the NFL's first game ever on Thanksgiving Eve, and it comes after the Rams' Week 11 bye. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. ET and will be streamed live on Netflix, just as the Rams' season opener against the 49ers was.

U2, led by Bono and The Edge, have won 22 Grammy Awards, including Best Album for The Joshua Tree in 1987.

The Rams, currently 2-4, have four games left until their Week 11 bye. They may need to win all four of those contests before taking on the Packers in Week 12 if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive.

The Packers, meanwhile, are 4-2 and tied for second in the NFC North.
