The NFL announced NBC will be getting/sharing Thursday Night Football.  Reading between the lines of the press release, I've created estimates for 5 Thursday Night Games in November and December of 2016..  a bit too late for political and CBS is happy to keep those games to themselves.

Part of NBC knows about it...  

 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/02/01/cbs-nbc-will-share-thursday-night-football/

 http://money.cnn.com/2016/02/01/media/thursday-night-football-nbc-cbs-deal/

The CNN article says NBC's first game will be November 17th, so they'll get one in Sweeps, but none during the election cycle.
