Kansas City Chiefs — Team Overview
The Kansas City Chiefs play at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, a 76,416-seat facility in Kansas City, Missouri, that holds the Guinness World Record for the loudest crowd roar at an outdoor stadium (142.2 decibels, set in 2014). The stadium opened in 1972 and has been the Chiefs' home ever since, making it one of the longest-tenured stadium relationships in the NFL.
The Chiefs compete in the AFC West alongside the Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Chargers, and Denver Broncos. Under head coach Andy Reid and quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs have become the most dominant franchise of the 2020s era, winning three Super Bowls (LVII, LVIII, and LIX) and appearing in four consecutive championship games. This sustained success has made Chiefs games among the most in-demand NFL broadcasts, with primetime appearances nearly every week of the season.
Channels That Broadcast Chiefs Games
As an AFC team, the Chiefs' primary broadcast partner is CBS rather than FOX. This is an important distinction because it affects which local affiliates carry their games. Here is the complete channel guide:
CBS
Primary broadcaster for AFC games. CBS carries 8-10 Chiefs regular-season games per year. The Kansas City CBS affiliate is KCTV 5. Jim Nantz and Tony Romo typically call the biggest Chiefs matchups.
FOX
Carries Chiefs games against NFC opponents (2-4 per season). The KC FOX affiliate is WDAF FOX 4, which also serves as a secondary local carrier for Chiefs content.
NBC (Sunday Night Football)
The Chiefs are the most frequently featured team on Sunday Night Football, appearing 3-4 times per season. The KC NBC affiliate is KSHB NBC 41.
ESPN (Monday Night Football)
Chiefs appear on MNF 2-3 times per season. ESPN also carries Wild Card playoff games.
Amazon Prime Video (TNF)
Amazon's exclusive Thursday Night Football package features the Chiefs 1-2 times per season. The Christmas Day and Black Friday NFL games also air on Amazon/Netflix.
NFL Network
Saturday games in December, international games, and preseason broadcasts. NFL Network also carries extensive Chiefs-focused programming year-round.
The Chiefs' dominance means they receive more primetime and nationally televised games than almost any other team. While this is great for fans on national networks, the sheer variety of channels involved (CBS, FOX, ESPN, NBC, Amazon, NFL Network) makes it impossible to cover every game with a single mainstream streaming service. IPTV USA Canada solves this by including all of them.
