What time do Kansas City Chiefs play Green Bay Packers?
By Matt Conner
The Kansas City Chiefs host the Green Bay Packers in the final preseason game for both teams on Thursday evening at Arrowhead Stadium.
It’s time for the final preseason tilt for several teams in the National Football League on Thursday, a list that includes the Kansas City Chiefs and Green Bay Packers.
In a typical week, a meeting between these franchises would be the talk of the league coast to coast every day leading up to the game and likely bleeding over into previous weeks. That’s because the potential star power involved between Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers, among others, would make this a central matchup on the NFL’s calendar.
For the preseason, this is a different matter entirely. The Chiefs are unlikely to play their starters much, if at all, according to Andy Reid earlier this week. Meanwhile, the Packers are going to do the same, meaning that the star power is severely lacking in this one. Still, that won’t stop people from charging a ton of money for parking and tickets, I’m sure.
Still, tonight is a Chiefs football game and it’s an important one for those bottom-of-the-depth-chart battles that are unfolding for both teams at various positions. There are likely still things to be decided in the secondary, the defensive line, the offensive interior, and wide receiver. It’s also a chance to see Jordan Love play for the Packers and perhaps Marquez Valdes-Scantling will sneak a rep or two in there to show off against his old teammates.
