As of now, the Monday following the Super Bowl, often referred to as “Super Sick Monday,” is not recognized as a national holiday in the United States. Despite ongoing discussions and a growing number of employees advocating for this change, no official measures have been implemented to designate it as a federal holiday.

Recent surveys indicate a significant portion of the workforce supports this idea. A study by UKG revealed that 43% of employed Americans believe the Monday after the Super Bowl should be a national holiday, an increase from 37% in 2024. Additionally, an estimated 22.6 million U.S. employees plan to miss work on this day in 2025, setting a new record.

The NFL is considering extending the regular season to 18 games, which could potentially push the Super Bowl to align with President’s Day weekend. This adjustment might provide employees with a built-in day off following the game. However, such a change would require negotiations with the NFL Players Association and is not imminent.

In summary, while there is notable public support for making the Monday after the Super Bowl a national holiday, no official actions have been taken to establish it as such.
