The Pittsburgh Steelers Wild Card playoff game against the Baltimore Ravens will be broadcast locally by WPXI, and available nationally via Amazon Prime Video. The Steelers and Ravens will kick off at 8 p.m. on Saturday.
The NFL’s “Thursday Night Football” package switched exclusively to streaming video provider Amazon for 2022 as part of a $1 billion per year rights package that runs through 2033. Last season, the NFL and Amazon added a Black Friday game to their Thursday night package, and this season, there is an Amazon Prime exclusive Wild Card game for the first time.
As part of those deals, Amazon must select a local broadcast partner for each team so that local fans can watch the game free and over the air. WPXI won the bidding to air the Steelers’ Wild Card game against the Browns. WPXI will also have locally produced pre- and post-game coverage.
The Steelers have not done that well on Amazon Prime so far. They’ve played four Thursday Night Football games since the streaming provider took over the contract, and the Steelers have gone 1-3, including a snow-filled loss to the Cleveland Browns earlier this season.
