Why Is Nfl Thursday Night Football Only On Amazon How Streaming Giant Won Rights To Prime Time Games For 11 Years

“Sunday Night Football” has been on NBC and “Monday Night Football” has been on ESPN since 2006. CBS has carried Sunday afternoon NFL games since 1956. Fox has carried games since 1994. If there’s been one inconsistency, it has been the Thursday prime-time broadcast, which has been going on only since 2006 and has bounced around from the NFL Network to CBS to NBC to Fox.

There are going to be some new visual elements to the broadcast as well. In addition to dual Skycam systems, there will be 13 super-slo-mo cameras and TrackMan ball-tracking technology, according to Sports Video Group.
