Thanksgiving has long been one of the biggest days on the NFL calendar, but soon the day after Thanksgiving will get in on the action as well.

The NFL is planning to play a Black Friday game in 2023, John Ourand of Sports Business Journal reports. It would presumably become part of the regular NFL schedule after that.

Amazon Prime Video will stream the game. Amazon already has the Thursday Night Football package, but that package does not include any of the three Thanksgiving games, which are televised by Fox, CBS, and NBC. Amazon is expected to pay something approaching $100 million for the rights to stream that single game on a Friday.

The game will likely be played during the afternoon, as the league can’t televise prime time games on Friday nights in November as part of its antitrust exemption.

They won't be happy until they have games every day of the week it seems. SMH.

This is a great move. I prefer to stuff my face with leftovers and be semi comatose on the couch on the Friday after thanksgiving anyhow.

Black Friday has become a day off with nothing to do. There isn't a better day on the calendar to add football to at this point.

Except for the traditional ASU / UofA football game, which has a history of being played on that day.

UofA is mostly a softball school now.

Totally agree.

If there’s one thing most Americans can agree upon it’s complete and utter gluttony + football.

Meh.

Black Friday has always been a great day for college football rivalry games. For me, it depends on the matchup but I enjoy those traditional rivalries.

I bet 2$ that the Cardinals get this game.

black friday is nature day for me. While everyone is shopping, I am in the woods
