The Prime Video app supports live sports on more than 650 connected devices, including Fire TV and the Fire tablet, set-top boxes, media players (Roku, Google Chromecast, Apple TV), game consoles (Xbox, PlayStation), smart TVs, and tablets and mobile phones running iOS or Android.

Although the exclusive streaming of football is a major deal, most viewers shouldn’t notice a significant difference in their viewing experience. Simply use the Prime Video app that has already been downloaded to your smart TV or media streaming device instead of switching to a specific traditional broadcast channel.

You can also record the entire season, to opt-in, find a Thursday Night Football game on Prime Video, then click the “Record” button. All of the games, as well as the pregame, postgame, and alternate broadcasts for every week, will be recorded. All content is cloud-stored and accessible until the beginning of the subsequent NFL season, so it won’t take up any DVR space.

When you opt-in, you have full access to pause, fast-forward, and rewind during live games as well as full replays after they are over. You will still have access to 15 minutes of rewind from the time you started the game, as well as the ability to pause and fast-forward as necessary, even if you choose not to sign up to record the entire season.
