Nothing stopping them except for Federal Law:
The Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 dictates that broadcasting rights of pro sports leagues are exempt from antitrust decisions — but it also contains language that says the NFL cannot broadcast games on Fridays and Saturdays. NFL games are blacked out locally on Fridays and Saturdays, thus essentially prohibiting the play (and broadcasting) of the games.
That means Saturdays, which is when college football games are played, is a no-go for the NFL until the college season wraps up. The same can be said on Fridays and the high-school season.
With the college season ending in November, that opens the door for the NFL to play games on Saturdays
Why are there NFL games on Saturday? The reason for league's expanded schedule in Week 15 | Sporting News
Thank college and high-school football.

Does MJ Sherman have the highest press conference to snaps played ratio in college football history?

Oh I can actually help with this.
You see on Sundays it's Nebraska defense against Nebraska offense. That's a scenario where the Nebraska defense can have some success.
On Saturdays it's Nebraska defense against an actual real offense, not whatever the hell we field and call an offense.
Hope that helps MJ.

No, The NFL bargained away your opportunity to watch pro football on Saturday in exchange for an exemption from anti-trust law.

But they play Saturday games every year in the playoffs and have added Saturday games at end of season this year - January 7 and 14, the 7th is during NCAA post season

No - the language presented was "NFL Games are blacked out Fridays and Saturdays...until the College Football Season wraps up." Incorrect. There will be an NFL game played prior to the conclusion of the NCAA Football Season
You are a nincompoop.
