Amazon Reportedly Hiring Kirk Herbstreit To Be Main Analyst For Thursday Night Football

Kirk Herbstreit is going to have another major gig during the 2022 football season.

In addition to his duties with College GameDay, he’s going to be the main color commentator on Amazon’s Thursday Night Football.

Amazon is finalizing a deal with him, while the company has still not named the play-by-play announcer.

Amazon is expected to finalize a deal with ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit to be the main analyst for Thursday Night Football, per @peter_king. Amazon had interest in Troy Aikman but he went to MNF. They land on Herbstreit, who will likely continue his ESPN/ABC duties as well.
