Thursday Night Football might have gotten a new television broadcasting partner starting with the 2018 season, but the streaming rights will stay right where they are. The NFL announced yesterday evening that Thursday Night Football’s streaming service will once again come through Amazon, via their Prime Video service.
The two parties agreed to a two-year pact, which is the first multi-year deal that the league has participated in for the streaming rights of Thursday Night Football. They began experimenting with Yahoo broadcasting a game in 2015. Twitter owned the rights in 2016 for $10 million, and Amazon quintupled that figure with a $50 million deal last season.
