TNF releases: Prime Video, Twitch and NFL Plus
You can watch Thursday Night Football games on Amazon Prime Video. If you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber, the Prime Video channel is already included for no additional cost.

Another option is to watch the games on Prime Video’s Twitch channel, which is available for free for those who don’t have a Prime subscription.
Additionally, if you have a subscription to NFL Plus, the league’s streaming service, you can stream the game without a subscription to Prime or Prime Video. However, note that NFL Plus viewing is limited to a phone or tablet, not a desktop or TV.
If you want to watch Thursday Night Football on local TV, you can do so if you live in the market for any of the teams playing on Thursday. In this case, the game will be broadcasted on WNYW Fox 5 in New York and KTVU Fox 2 in the Bay Area. You can watch the games on your TV using a TV viewing function or an antenna if you live in an area with good reception.
Make sure to check if your streaming service carries Fox in your area as not all of them carry every local network.
