It’s hard to call it a rivalry when it’s been so one-sided. The Steelers have dominated their division rivals for decades, and this year is shaping up to be a continuation of this trend. Winners of five straight, the Steelers are 8-2 and in first place in the AFC North behind a strong defense and a resurgence from veteran QB Russell Wilson.

Meanwhile, the Browns have cratered this season. They are 2-8 and in last place in the division after reaching the playoffs last season. They are rocketing toward a top pick in next year’s draft despite spending more in player salaries for this year’s team than any team in league history, with a large portion of that spending going toward the worst contract in NFL history, if not of any sport ever.

The Steelers-Browns game kicks off in Cleveland tonight at 8:15 p.m. ET (5:15 p.m. PT). The game will stream nationally on Prime Video and for free on Twitch.

Keep reading to see your options for watching Thursday Night Football on Prime Video, Twitch, NFL Plus and — if you live in the home markets of the Steelers or Browns — a local network channel.

With YouTube and YouTube TV the exclusive home of NFL Sunday Ticket, along with games also streaming on Paramount Plus, Peacock and ESPN Plus, there’s lots for NFL fans to keep track of this season. Check out our picks for the best live TV streaming services for NFL fans in 2024.

TNF streaming: Prime Video, Twitch and NFL Plus

Thursday Night Football games are streamed nationally on Amazon Prime Video, giving NFL fans more incentive than free two-day shipping to sign up for an Amazon Prime account, which costs $15 a month or $139 a year. You can also subscribe only to Prime Video for $9 a month.

Fans in the local markets of each team playing on Thursday night will be able to watch the game on an over-the-air station, while those who don’t pay for either of Amazon’s services can watch for free on Prime Video’s Twitch channel. (Twitch is also owned by Amazon.)

If you subscribe to NFL Plus, the league’s $7-per-month streaming service (or $15 a month with Red Zone included), you can also stream the game without subscribing to Prime or Prime Video. Note that NFL Plus viewing is limited to watching on just a phone or tablet, not on a computer or TV. 

Amazon Prime Video

Thursday Night Football each week, for $9 a month

Thursday Night Football games are streamed live on Amazon Prime Video. For millions of Amazon Prime subscribers, the Prime Video channel is already included at no extra cost. But if you’re not an Amazon Prime subscriber, it might be worth it to shell out the $9 a month for the stand-alone Prime Video service, not only for football but also its impressive selection of shows and movies.

Can I watch Thursday Night Football on local TV?

Yes, you can, if you live in the local market of either of the teams playing on Thursday. For this week, that’s NBC 11 (WPXI) in Pittsburgh and ABC 5 (WEWS) in Cleveland, according to 506 Sports. There are two ways to watch local channels on your TV without cable or satellite TV. The first is with a live TV streaming service. And the second is with an over-the-air antenna, if you live in an area that has good reception.

Each of the five major live TV streaming services carry ABC and NBC, but not every service carries every local network, so check each one using the links below to make sure it carries ABC or NBC in your area.
