Tonight marks the return of one of the NFL’s beloved traditions, with a new season of “Hard Knocks.”
This installment, titled “Hard Knocks: A Season in the NFC East,” is noteworthy. It’s the fifth time the HBO series has followed a team throughout the season instead of just during training camp. Interestingly, this season focuses on an entire division rather than a single team for the second time.
The series will showcase the New York Giants, reigning Super Bowl winners the Philadelphia Eagles, the Dallas Cowboys, and the Washington Commanders. New episodes will air weekly, continuing through the NFL playoffs.
The official description of the series gives a peek behind the curtain of one of football’s most storied divisions, detailing everything from the ups and downs of games to injuries and challenges faced by the teams.
‘Hard Knocks: Season of the NFC East’ Release Date
The premiere is scheduled for December 2nd at 9 PM ET on HBO and the HBO Max streaming platform.
Subsequent episodes will be available every Tuesday until the conclusion of the NFL season.
