Hard Knocks: In Season with the NFC East will debut in December with the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, Washington Commanders and reigning Super Bowl LIX champion Philadelphia Eagles, following some of the most storied teams and biggest names in football during the final stretch of the NFL season and into the playoffs. The Cowboys’ Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb, the Giants’ Russell Wilson and Malik Nabers, Jayden Daniels and Terry McLaurin of the Commanders, and Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley of the Eagles are among the stars to be featured in the series. This will be the second edition of the division format, following Hard Knocks: In Season with the AFC North in 2024.
Training Camp with the Buffalo Bills and In Season with the NFC East are the first two Hard Knocks installments in a new multi-year deal between longtime partners HBO and NFL Films.
