The Kansas City Chiefs will kickstart their 2023 NFL season by hosting the Detroit Lions on Thursday, Sept. 7. The highly-anticipated clash is scheduled to commence at 8:20 p.m. ET at Arrowhead Stadium.
The Chiefs are likely to field most of their Super Bowl-winning team against the Lions, with Patrick Mahomes as their signal caller. However, Kansas City's superstar tight end Travis Kelce has been ruled out of the clash due to a knee injury.
Meanwhile, Jared Goff is expected to get the nod at quarterback for Detroit in its season-opener against the defending champions. The signal caller formed a strong partnership with Amon-Ra St. Brown last season and the duo could play an important role for the Lions on Thursday.
