The night before any game is a special night for the team. Players and coaches follow their routine in leading up to the game. Players will go to bed tonight and wake up tomorrow on game day. Each team will be forced to sit eight players to get to the 45 man roster.
There will be players on both teams who are playing in the last game of their professional career. Some don't know it yet. It might come down to training camp next year, but some players will not leave the game on their own terms.
Some players are truly having their last "night before the game". The transition to ex-player can be very challenging. I saw a striking discussion with Rodney Harrison talking about the pain he endures from his years of playing in the league.
