About “Thursday Night Football” on Amazon

The Los Angeles Chargers — fresh off a win over their rivals, the Las Vegas Raiders — will take on the Kansas City Chiefs — who waxed the Arizona Cardinals on the road in Week 1 — in the first game of Prime Video’s 11-year deal to be the exclusive home of “TNF.” The game will feature two of the best QBs in the game as LA’s Justin Herbert and KC’s Patrick Mahomes take the field and look to move their respective teams to 2-0 on the young season.

With their new exclusive rights to “Thursday Night Football,” Amazon has assembled a top-notch broadcasting team featuring legendary play-by-play announcer Al Michaels, five-time Emmy-winning analyst Kirk Herbstreit, and award-winning reporter Kaylee Hartung covering all of the in-game action.

Veteran NFL anchor Charissa Thompson will lead pre and post-game coverage and she will be joined by Pro Football Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez, All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman, NFL quarterback extraordinaire Ryan Fitzpatrick, and recently announced contributors Andrew Whitworth and Aqib Talib.
