Apr 23, 2015 at 06:00 AM
The Kansas City Chiefs will be featured in three primetime television games, including two back-to-back contests in Weeks Two and Three. The Chiefs will face the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football on Sept. 17, followed by a visit to Green Bay to take on the Packers on Monday Night Football on Sept. 28. Chiefs fans will also get the chance to watch their favorite team on Sunday Night Football on Nov. 22, as Kansas City takes on the Chargers in San Diego on NBC. In addition to the three primetime contests, the Chiefs travel internationally to London in Week Eight to play the Detroit Lions in an 8:30 a.m. local kickoff on FOX.
This season will mark the sixth-consecutive year the Chiefs have held at least one primetime contest and the second-straight year the team has been slated for three night games.
"April is an exciting time of year for us," Chiefs Head Coach Andy Reid said. "Along with the schedule release and the NFL Draft, we also get our first opportunity as a team to get back to football. After seeing our schedule today including three primetime games, I know Chiefs Kingdom will be as energized as I am come September."
Kansas City's schedule features seven games against six playoff teams from the 2014 season. The club's 2015 opponents boasted a combined record of 115-92-1 (.555) last season.
The Chiefs begin their 2015 slate on the road as the club travels to Houston to face the Texans on Sept. 13. After back-to-back nationally televised games vs. the Broncos (Thursday, Sept. 17) and at Green Bay (Monday, Sept. 28), the team travels to Cincinnati for a Week Four matchup vs. the Bengals.
Weeks Five and Six will feature battles against the NFC North as the Chiefs line up against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium on Oct. 11 followed by a visit to Minnesota to take on the Vikings on Oct. 18. The Chiefs then return home to play the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 25.
For the first time in franchise history, Kansas City will play a regular season football game overseas as the team heads to London to face the Detroit Lions as part of the NFL's International Series on Nov. 1. After enjoying a Bye Week at the midway point of the season, the Chiefs travel back-to-back weeks to face AFC West foes, the Denver Broncos (Nov. 15) and a night contest at San Diego (Nov. 22).
On Dec. 20, the Chiefs travel to Baltimore to battle the Ravens before returning home for their final two regular season contests vs. the Cleveland Browns (Dec. 27) and the Raiders (Jan. 3.)
Home games in bold; all kickoffs are Central Time. * Subject to Flexible Scheduling
Flexible scheduling may be applied in Weeks 5-10 in addition to Weeks 11-17. During that period, flexible scheduling can be used in no more than two weeks by shifting a Sunday afternoon game into primetime and moving the Sunday night game to an afternoon start time.
A select number of games are being "cross-flexed," moving between CBS and FOX to bring potentially under-distributed games to wider audiences.
Chiefs single-game tickets will go on sale to Jackson County taxpayers, Chiefs Season Ticket Members and the general public on Friday, April 24. Single game tickets are subject to availability and dynamic pricing. Season ticket memberships are available now for as low as $225 per year.
