History

Historical Context

Amazon first entered NFL streaming in April 2017, paying $50 million for non-exclusive Thursday Night Football rights on Prime Video. After extending the deal in 2018 and securing exclusive rights in 2022, the league’s shift to digital platforms set a precedent that other sports leagues now follow, prompting broadcasters to renegotiate cable contracts and advertisers to target streaming audiences.
