Amazon Prime Video’s Exclusive Thursday Night Football: How to Stream and What to Expect
Football fans are familiar with switching channels to catch their favorite games, as the NFL divides its matchups among networks like CBS, FOX, and NBC. With the rise of streaming services, another major player has entered the football scene: Amazon.
Prime Video holds exclusive streaming rights for Thursday Night Football until 2033. Subscribers can access the games through Prime Video, which costs $8.99 per month, or as part of the broader Amazon Prime membership for $14.99 per month or $139 per year, with no additional fees for NFL streaming. Here’s what viewers need to know about watching Thursday Night Football on Amazon.
How to Stream Thursday Night Football
While the idea of football airing exclusively on a streaming platform is significant, the viewing experience remains similar for most fans. Instead of tuning into a specific broadcast channel, users can access the Prime Video app on their smart TV or streaming device. Games can also be streamed live on Twitch, Amazon’s live-streaming platform, although the app is unavailable on Roku TVs. Viewers can catch the games live or watch replays afterward.
