What to know:
• The Cowboys have played on Thanksgiving since 1966, going 31-21-1 on turkey day games.
• The last time the Raiders and Cowboys played on Thanksgiving came back in 2013, when the Cowboys beat the Raiders, 31-24, behind a three-touchdown performance from DeMarco Murray.
• This is the first time the two franchises are playing each other since 2017, when the Cowboys squeaked by the Raiders, 20-17, due to a controversial call made on fourth down. Dak Prescott ran a quarterback sneak, leading the chain gang to come out on the field. Prescott appeared to be inches short of the first-down marker, but referee Gene Steratore put a folded index card in between the ball and the stick, and it touched -- giving Dallas the first down and a chance to nail a field goal that ultimately won them the game.
