How to watch the NFL’s Thursday Night Football Week 2 of the 2024-2025 season live online for free—and without cable

After sitting on the sidelines for the pre-season and the start of the 2024-2025 season, Amazon Prime is finally getting in the game.

The streaming service will broadcast its first game of the year tonight, as the Buffalo Bills face the Miami Dolphins, a long-standing rivalry that should result in a fierce competition.

Both teams won their season openers, so the winner of this game will sit atop the AFC East for at least a few days (and maybe longer, should the Patriots lose this weekend)

Here’s how to see this week’s game and what you can expect from Thursday night games tonight and moving forward.

Can I watch NFL Thursday night games for free on broadcast television?

Yes, but only in certain circumstances. Thursday night games are only viewable over the air if you’re in the broadcast zones of the two teams who are playing. If not, you’ll need an Amazon Prime account.

Can I stream NFL Thursday night games live online if I don’t have an Amazon Prime account?

Sorry, but no. Amazon has exclusivity to all Thursday night games, with the exception of Thanksgiving night. Other streaming services can’t carry them.
