Find out your live streaming options for the NFL's trio of Thanksgiving Day games.

My favorite part of Thanksgiving weekend is either leftover
turkey sandwiches on Friday or digesting the Thanksgiving feast (that
is, napping) on the couch in front of televised football on Thursday. If
you are unable to watch the TV broadcasts of the three NFL games, you
have streaming options. Each one is a bit different, however, since each
game is on a different network.
Here's what you need to know:
Game 1: Minnesota Vikings at Detroit Lions, 12:30 p.m. ET on Fox
You can stream this battle of NFC North rivals on the Fox Sports Go app, but you must verify your cable subscription. Fox Sports Go works with iOS devices, Android devices and the Amazon Kindle Fire as well as with the Apple TV, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, Google Chromecast, Roku and Xbox One ($325.00 at Amazon.com). You can also access Fox Sports Go from a computer.
Game 2: Los Angeles Chargers at Dallas Cowboys, 4:30 p.m. ET on CBS
You can stream this game on CBS All Access
on your computer, tablet and the following streaming devices: Amazon
Fire TV, Android TV, Chromecast, Roku and Xbox One. CBS's streaming
service costs $5.99 a month, and there is a free trial.
(Disclosure: CBS is CNET's parent company).
Game 3: New York Giants at Washington Redskins, 8:30pm ET on NBC
NBC broadcasts Sunday Night Football games and includes this Thanksgiving nightcap in its schedule. You can stream the game on Amazon if you are a Prime subscriber or NBC Sport's SNF All Access if you are a cable subscriber.
Options for cord cutters
If you don't have a cable subscription, you can use one of the big five streaming services -- PlayStation Vue, Sling TV, DirectTV Now, Hulu with Live TV or YouTube TV
-- but channel lineups vary by service. For example, Sling TV doesn't
offer CBS. Also, live programming is not available on all channels in
all markets.
