This is a highly anticipated game, given the budding rivalry between Cincinnati and Kansas City. It’s also a rematch of last season’s AFC Championship Game, where K.C. broke a three-game losing skid against the Bengals. It will mark the first time that the Chiefs will face their former starting left tackle, Orlando Brown Jr., on his new team. That will add an entirely new dimension to the drama between these two clubs.
This is the second game for Kansas City revealed so far, alongside their Week 9 game against the Dolphins in Frankfurt, Germany.
Remember, the NFL’s full schedule reveal is coming at 7:00 p.m. CT on Thursday, May 11.
