'Thursday Night Football' is heading to FOX for the 2018 NFL season

FOX has outbid CBS and NBC for the rights to the NFL’s “Thursday Night Football” package through 2022. The deal gives FOX the rights to 11 Thursday games per season (excluding Thanksgiving night), starting in week 4 (typically the first week of October).

From a practical standpoint, it means CBS can keep “The Big Bang Theory” in its Thursday home all season rather than airing it on Monday nights for the first month or so of the season. NBC will be able to schedule its Thursday lineup through the entire fall rather than putting shows on a two-month hiatus in early November.

My Comment: This will also make scheduling a little easier for the Canadian networks as well.
