Adam Schefter reports that NFL owners have approved a proposal allowing flex scheduling for Amazon’s Thursday Night Football in a move that will undoubtedly impact the Philadelphia Eagles.
Flexing for Thursday Night Football just passed, 24-8, per source.

The scheduling can start in weeks 13-17, teams can only be flexed twice on Thursday night, and the NFL has to give the selected teams 28 days’ notice before announcing the move.
Raiders owner Mark Davis was among a group led most notably by New York Giants co-owner John Mara – who didn’t support the proposed scheduling tweak in primetime Thursday games.
The move now provides the NFL’s newest streaming partner with more attractive matchups later in the season.
