DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - We already know the Cowboys will open the regular season in primetime vs Tom Brady and the Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but now we know have our first schedule leak.
According to Bleacher Report's Master Tes, the Cowboys will host Jon Gruden and the Las Vegas Raiders on Thanksgiving (Nov. 25).
The Raiders were a fixture on Thanksgiving during their early years as a franchise, appearing in four straight games on Turkey Day from 1966-1969. Dallas has played on Thanksgiving every year since 1996.
This will be the third time the Cowboys will host the Raiders on Thanksgiving. Dallas hosted the then-Oakland Raiders in the inaugural Thanksgiving game at AT&T Stadium in 2009. The Cowboys also hosted the Raiders on Thanksgiving in 2013.
The Cowboys are 31-21-1 all-time on Thanksgiving.
