NFL Teams Ask About Becoming Permanent Host for Amazon Black Friday Game, per Report

The Jets are set to host the Dolphins for the NFL’s first Black Friday game, to be broadcast on Amazon Prime, an event that the league plans on becoming an annual tradition. However, unlike the Lions and Cowboys, which annually host games on Thanksgiving Day, the league hasn’t chosen one team to be the permanent Black Friday host.

Apparently, it’s not for a lack of trying, though.

Multiple teams have asked the league to host the Black Friday game on a permanent basis, according to USA Today’s Chris Bumbaca. However, the NFL instead would prefer to rotate the game in different cities, like it has done for the NFL draft since 2015.
