"CBS Sports' presentation of the Christmas Day game will be broadcast on The CBS Television Network, and available to stream live on Paramount+ and on mobile with NFL+, while the special slime-filled presentation for family-viewing fun will air exclusively on Nickelodeon," it continued.
Last year's Nickmas game featured SpongeBob tie-ins and holiday-themed special effects, but the slime addition will be new for 2023.
