What Happens to Browns vs. Bills Bets After Venue Change to Detroit? NFL Betting Rules for Relocated Games

Sunday's Browns vs. Bills game has been in the center of the NFL's mind not due to any on-field news, but because of impending six-foot, thunder-laden snowstorms in Buffalo and across Western New York.

With that weather in mind, the league has officially moved Browns vs. Bills — scheduled for 1 p.m. ET on Sunday — to Detroit. The game will kickoff at its original time.

The Bills will now play back-to-back games at Ford Field without having to travel. They play Sunday against the Browns in a "home game," then play the Lions four days later on Thanksgiving Day at noon ET.

So, what happens to your already placed bets for Browns vs. Bills now that the game has been relocated?

What Happens to Browns vs. Bills Bets After Venue Change to Detroit?

As is often the case, the answer to the question regarding what happens to your bet will come down to the book that you placed it with.

If a game moves locations, some books will void all bets. But DraftKings, for instance, allows bets to stand if the home team remains designated as the home team. PointsBet, meanwhile, keeps all bets live if the date remains the same.
