Thursday Night Football is back with its biggest season yet. The Philadelphia Eagles will host the Washington Commanders for the latest TNF game of the 2024-2025 season, streaming exclusively on Prime Video on Thursday (Nov. 14).
Like other TNF games, pregame coverage will launch at 7 p.m. ET, one hour before the Commanders vs. Eagles matchup. A total of 17 games will stream on Prime Video, including the Black Friday game and the NFL Wild Card Game.
Amazon secured exclusive rights to stream Thursday night NFL games on Prime Video in 2022, marking a new era for sports fans. According to The Wrap, TNF’s season opener snagged nearly 15 million viewers making it the third, most-watched TNF game in Prime Video history despite a small, one percent drop in viewership compared to last year.
Last year’s Black Friday game between the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins averaged around 11.18 million viewers in total but the TNF season opener hit a streaming high with 15.05 million people tuning in to watch the Eagles win over the Minnesota Vikings (34-28). At the time, the ratings increased by two million from the previous season, per The Hollywood Reporter.
Prime Video scored another ratings high this season after Taylor Swift, who is dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, made a surprise appearance at the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos game last fall and witnessed Kansas City triumph over the Broncos (19-8). Ratings for the game spiked to 13.83 million viewers — a 57 percent increase compared to a TNF football game around the same time last year, per Deadline. Swift also attended a TNF game this month.
The Grammy winner is no stranger to Prime Video and TNF. Swift premiered a teaser trailer for her Midnights album during a TNF game in 2022.
The Chiefs are expected to play in this year’s Black Friday game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Nov. 29, and Swift might be there. The “Fortnight” singer has been on the road for the second leg of her Eras tour wrapping next month, but she doesn’t have a show scheduled on game day. Coverage of the Black Friday game start at 1:30 p.m. ET/10:30 a.m. PT on Thursday, Nov. 29. Viewers can shop in-game deals on electronics, toys and NFL gear designed by Amazon Creators.
In other music news, Garth Brooks headlined the Amazon Music Live Concert on Black Friday last year. The Grammy winner treated fans to a “Diver-Bar” concert event live streamed from the grand opening of Friends in Low Places Bar & Honky-Tonk, Brooks’ new bar in Nashville. The first-of-its-kind Black Friday concert streamed live on Prime Video and Twitch.
Amazon Music Live returned Oct. 17 with a performance from Jelly Roll. The weekly concert series airs after Thursday Night Football. Season two featured performances from stars such as Ed Sheeran, Lil Durk, Feid, Metro Boomin, Gunna and TWICE.
Viewers can log in to Prime Video to begin streaming tonight’s TNF game in addition to other football programs including previous games from last season that are available to stream right now.
