Here’s everything you need to know for the 2022 Kansas City Chiefs regular-season schedule. Stay tuned here for updates all week long.
Welcome to schedule week in the National Football League.
No other sports organization knows how to create such pomp and pageantry around its product as the NFL, so it’s no surprise that the league has figured out how to make the release of its 2022 regular-season schedule into a week-long string of announcements and analysis—claiming the headlines of a random week in mid-May away from other sports (as normal).
Fans of the Kansas City Chiefs will know the team’s complete schedule for the upcoming season by the end of the day on Thursday of this week. However, news leaks always happen in the days leading up to it and this year, the league is even rolling out various announcements on different days—allowing the NFL’s broadcast partners to announce a game on their particular slate.
For example, ESPN is announcing a couple of Monday Night Football games via the Good Morning America broadcast on ABC. CBS will do the same on Tuesday, followed by FOX on Wednesday and NBC on Thursday.
Here is the schedule as we believe it to be so far, via some unofficial reports and/or unconfirmed leaks. (* = primetime game)
