In addition to streaming the entire game and national televised advertisements, fans will get tons of additional content. The Twitter partnership will deliver pre-game Periscope broadcasts from players and teams, in-game highlights and more.
This is a great way to get more content than we’ve been offered in the past, watch NFL Football for free, and interact with players and fans unlike ever before.
How to Stream TNF To Your TV
Most users won’t want to watch the entire game on their smartphone or tablet, and thankfully we don’t have to. There’s a new Twitter app for Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV and the Xbox One that will feature any and all live-streaming video content from Twitter.
These same apps will stream even more later this year from the NBA, PAC12 Networks, Campus Insider and others. Fans can also watch this content on smartphones and tablets with the CBS App, NBC Sports Live Extra, or the NFL Network app. Not to mention the games will be airing on Television like usual. Basically this gives us more ways to watch Football, and cord-cutters benefit the most. Users can also stream it from a computer to their HDTV over HDMI.
Do I Need A Twitter Account?
No, you do not need a Twitter account to watch Thursday Night Football live. Fans will simply be able to navigate to the link mentioned above and tune in. However, if you’d like to sign up for Twitter click here. This will allow users the opportunity to interact with players, fans, coaches and more.
