Report: Amazon Eyeing Al Michaels for 'Thursday Night Football' Package

Amazon is targeting NBC's Al Michaels to be the voice of its upcoming exclusive Thursday Night Football package, according to the New York Post's Andrew Marchand.

According to the Post, while Michaels is at the top of Amazon's list, the platform also has interest in FOX's Joe Buck and CBS' Ian Eagle.

Michaels, 76, is scheduled to broadcast Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles for NBC, but he is also in the final season of his current contract. Mike Tirico is currently slated to take over the Sunday Night Football booth full-time from Michaels in 2022-23.
