What time is Thursday Night Football tonight, Sept. 28? (And how to watch)

Week 4 of the NFL season kicks off in primetime this Thursday night as a pair of division rivals face off head-to-head on Thursday Night Football!

Tonight, the Detroit Lions head to Green Bay to take on the Green Bay Packers in a game that is sure to be an exciting and close-scoring game. The Lions and Packers are no strangers to facing off in heated primetime battles as the rivalry between the two NFC North teams.

Both teams are off to a great start to the season going 2-1 through the first three weeks of the 2023 season after pulling off some incredible wins. We still haven’t stopped talking about how the Lions started their season with an upset win in primetime against the defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs and the team is hoping to pull out yet another Thursday night win this evening over the Packers.

Meanwhile, the Packers are coming off of two back-to-back games in which the winner was decided by just one point, a trend the team would like to end this week as they take on the Lions at home!
