CHARISSA Thompson calls for medical help live on Amazon’s Thursday Night Football broadcast.
An NFL legend was left in agony during the show’s segment, and the host was worried for him.

After the Buffalo Bills claimed their third straight victory on TNF, the Amazon production crew turned up the heat on their pundits.
The panel, featuring Thompson, played a game of “hot wing roulette”.
They were tasked with eating some fiery chicken wings, of varying levels of spice, while answering some questions on the NFL’s hottest topics.
What started as a joke soon spiralled after Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez ended up with the hottest wing on the table.
The 49-year-old was evidently struggling, but received little sympathy from his costars.
Andrew Whitworth and Richard Sherman were both howling with laughter.
One picture even showed the two stars bundled together, barely able to stay on their feet.
During the segment, Gonzalez was a mess, stumbling over his words and unable to contribute anything other than the occasional muted curse.
“The hottest tight end, Travis Kelce. Holy s***. Why’s it so spic…,” he mumbled, trailing off.
He soon tuned his attention to executive chef Zach Skinner, who made the wings.
“What the… What the hell is wrong with you, Zach? Gosh, dog, screw you! Holy smokes!”
In the end, Gonzalez turned to chugging milk to try to settle the burning.
But it only seemed to be a minor help.
And he ended up with half of it flowing down his chin, which made Whitworth and Sherman crack up even more.
Thompson tried to keep the segment together, but Gonzalez’s struggles took over.
“Tony was the one person who did not want to do this,” she told viewers, before jokingly asking, “Do we have a medic on hand, a doctor?”
When asked about the spice level, Chef Skinner said, “When I prepare wings for people, they’re usually about an eight out of 10.
“These are about an 18 out of 10. It’s no mercy wings.”
Gonzalez is a Kansas City Chiefs Hall of Famer, having played 12 seasons for the side before spending five years with the Atlanta Falcons.
He is the NFL’s all-time leader in receiving yards and receptions by a tight end and is widely regarded as one of the greatest of all time.
