The Houston Texans have won their last two games to even their record at 5-5 and stay in the AFC playoff picture. To make it three straight, they'll need to find a way to knock off the Buffalo Bills tonight without their starting quarterback. C.J. Stroud will miss his third straight game with a concussion, setting up Davis Mills for another start.
For the Bills, quarterback Josh Allen is coming off a game in which he threw for three touchdowns and rushed for another three, but Allen and the Bills offense face a stiff test tonight against a rugged Texans defense. The Bills are 7-3 and in prime position in the AFC playoff race but trail the New England Patriots in the AFC East. The Bills need a win tonight to keep their hopes alive for a sixth-consecutive division title.
The Bills-Texans game kicks off tonight at 8:15 p.m. ET (5:15 p.m. PT) and will stream nationally on Prime Video and free on Twitch. Fans in the Buffalo and Houston markets can watch on a local TV station but the rest of the country will need to stream it on Prime Video or Twitch.

How to watch Bills vs. Texans on TNF
Tonight's game will stream nationally on Prime Video, giving NFL fans more incentive than free two-day shipping to sign up for an Amazon Prime account, which costs $15 a month or $139 a year. You can also subscribe only to Prime Video for $9 a month.
If you don't pay for either of Amazon's services, you can watch free on Prime Video's Twitch channel. (Twitch is also owned by Amazon.)
You can also use NFL Plus, the league's $7-per-month streaming service (or $15 a month with Red Zone included), to stream the game without subscribing to Prime or Prime Video. Note that NFL Plus viewing is limited to watching on just a phone or tablet, not on a computer or TV.
Can I watch the Bills-Texans game on local TV?
Yes, Bills and Texans fans in the local markets of each team will be able to watch the game on an over-the-air station. For this game, that's ABC 7 (WKBW) in Buffalo and Fox 26 (KRIV) in Houston, according to 506 Sports.
