Black Friday Raiders-Chiefs: How to watch

NFL football is back on Black Friday this season

NFL football is back on Black Friday this season.

After the league debuted the first Black Friday game a season ago — between the New York Jets and the Miami Dolphins on Amazon Prime — the NFL is dipping into those post-Thanksgiving waters again, with a game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas Raiders.

That debut was viewed as a success for both the streaming service, and the league. While there were estimates that the game could see as many as 12.5 million viewers — the game instead averaged just under ten million viewers and peaked at 11.18 million — last year’s Black Friday game was still the most-watched game of the day.

“Prime Video’s first Black Friday football game welcomed meaningful successes across Amazon’s many touchpoints with fans and customers,” said Jay Marine, VP and Global Head of Sports for Prime Video, in a statement.

“We’re beyond proud of this new tentpole event we’ve created with the NFL, and how so many parts of Amazon worked to create a fun and innovative production that surrounded football, family, shopping, food and music. We look forward to building this Black Friday game into one of America’s great annual sports traditions.”
