Michaels, 80, currently is in the final season of a three-year deal that reportedly pays him about $15 million per season.

Prime Video hosts the NFL’s Thursday night games, in addition to last month’s Black Friday game, and will stream its first playoff game this season.

According to the report, the plan is for Michaels and Amazon to go year-by-year with his contract from this point forward. The “Miracle on Ice” sportscaster has said that he will know when it is time to retire.

Michaels was the play-by-play voice for ABC’s “Monday Night Football” from 1986-2005 and NBC Sports’ “Sunday Night Football” from 2006-21.
