CBS announced Sunday that it would carry Thursday night football games again in 2015, building on the games’ success during the 2014 season.
“What we wanted to do in terms of promotion and in terms of giving us another victory in prime time exceeded all our expectations,” said Sean McManus, chairman of CBS Sports. “It was so successful from so many areas.”
The network’s rights payment of $275 million will increase to just above $300 million for a slightly different package of games. Instead of seven Thursday night games and one on Saturday, during Week 16, CBS will produce and televise the first eight games of the “Thursday Night Football” schedule, which will continue to be simulcast on NFL Network. The remaining games in the Thursday package, which will be carried only on NFL Network and
the local stations of the teams that are playing, will also be produced by CBS.
