It’s game on for Amazon .
The internet retail giant has reached a deal with the National Football League to stream 10 « Thursday Night Football » games during the coming season, an Amazon representative said Tuesday. The one-year pact is valued at about $50 million, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Amazon was reportedly in a bidding war for the streaming rights with Facebook , YouTube and Twitter — the latter of which had the streaming rights last season. The new deal’s reported value is worth five times what Twitter paid for the 2016 streaming rights.
