Kansas City Chiefs schedule 2025: Dates, time, TV channel, opponents & season outlook

The Kansas City Chiefs were close to clinching an unprecedented three-peat last season, but they ultimately lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX. Heading into the 2025 season, the Chiefs will have their eyes set on another championship run after last year's disappointment.

The team has made some moves in free agency and the draft in the last couple of months to keep its roster strong. They will now look to get back to winning ways in 2025.

Here's how the Chiefs' schedule looks heading into the 2025 NFL season.

Kansas City Chiefs schedule 2025 and opponents

The Kansas City Chiefs will kick off their season with a trip to Brazil, as visitors, against the Los Angeles Chargers in São Paulo on Friday, Sept. 5. The game, which will take place a day after the Philadelphia Eagles' season-opening game against the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 5, will be the second NFL game of the season between the two AFC West rivals.

One of the most anticipated games for the Chiefs in the 2025 NFL season will be their road matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.

Kansas City Chiefs away schedule 2025

Patrick Mahomes and his teammates will encounter an easier series of away games compared to their home fixtures this year, although their road calendar has its difficulties as well.

The Chiefs will face the Buffalo Bills, who were one of just two teams to defeat them in the regular season last year, on the road in what is probably their toughest road matchup this year.

Kansas City Chiefs 2025 season outlook

Even though the team did not add many newcomers this offseason, several veteran players who are returning for KC should improve the team's prospects of having a good season. This is especially true given that the Chiefs smartly retained some of their most important players.

With Hollywood Brown returning and Rashee Rice also expected to be back fit after a season-ending injury suffered last year, the Chiefs offense looks set to take a big step forward next season.

Andy Reid has led the Chiefs to a winning season in each of his 12 seasons as head coach. Since the Chiefs' roster is still relatively strong, it's not likely that the winning record run ends in 2025.
