Be sure to watch the 11th Annual NFL & United Way Thanksgiving Halftime Show featuring multi-platinum recording artist, Jesse McCartney. The show will air live on Thursday, November 27 during the 12:30 p.m. (ET) game between the Detroit Lions and the Tennessee Titans on CBS.

McCartney’s live performance will be the highlight of the halftime show, which focuses on United Way and NFL’s commitment to youth health and fitness. The show will encourage young fans to get 60 minutes of exercise each day, as part of NFL PLAY 60, the league’s youth health and fitness campaign. United Way is asking NFL fans to support their 10-year goal to get 1.9 million more kids healthy and fit by donating to United Way in-school and after-school fitness programs. Throughout the holiday weekend, fans can log onto nfl.com/play60 to make a donation to United Way to help reverse the growing epidemic of childhood obesity.
