Hearst-owned independent WMOR Tampa, Fla. (DMA 14), announced today that it has secured local broadcast rights to air NFL Network’s Thursday Night Football matchup between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday, Oct. 25.

This Buccaneers-Vikings game at 8 p.m. will be a local broadcast of the game airing on NFL Network and will be called by the NFL announcing team of play-by-play announcer Brad Nessler and game analyst Mike Mayock. NFL Network’s Alex Flanagan provides reports from the sidelines.
